This week's agentic AI news shows how artificial intelligence agents are changing the way people shop and businesses work. Agentic AI is a type of AI that can make decisions and take actions on its own, like a helper that shops for you or helps sell things. In 2025, big companies like Walmart, Target, and Google started using agentic shopping assistants to help customers find and buy products. These AI helpers influenced 17% of holiday shopping sales, which is about $13.5 billion during Thanksgiving weekend alone. That's a huge jump from nothing just one year ago. Meanwhile, the world is investing a lot of money in agentic AI. Companies received mega-rounds of funding totaling $34.6B, with Anthropic's Series G raising $15B. Asia-Pacific became the world's biggest market for agentic AI with $3.0 billion in revenue, beating North America which had $2.6 billion. Experts say that agentic commerce—when AI buys things for you automatically—will grow to $1 trillion by 2030. Big payment companies like PayPal and Visa started supporting these AI shoppers in April 2025. Some experts think stablecoins (special digital money) will help AI agents make tiny payments quickly and safely. Companies like Aviso are building AI platforms that help sales teams work with 50+ different AI agents instead of using 14 different apps. Right now, only about 40% of enterprise software has these AI agents, but experts predict this will grow. This shows that agentic AI is moving from being just an experiment to becoming a real tool that businesses use every day.
