Report Offers Playbook for Agentic AI Implementation
GLG has published a new report on agentic AI that includes a tactical playbook for implementation. The guide aims to help organizations avoid early pitfalls and unlock the technology's value. The report is based on perspectives from top experts in the field.
- Agentic AI systems are designed to go beyond generating content; they can autonomously plan and execute multi-step tasks to achieve a specific goal with minimal human intervention. - The market for agentic AI is projected to grow substantially, with one forecast estimating it will reach $45 billion by 2030, up from $8.5 billion in 2026. - Corporate adoption is accelerating, with a Deloitte survey revealing that 74% of companies plan to implement agentic AI within the next two years. - Real-world applications are already in use by major companies; for example, LinkedIn uses an agentic hiring assistant to help recruiters, and Salesforce has an AI agent to assist with event management. - The GLG report itself is based on insights from 100 senior business leaders responsible for deploying agentic AI solutions, supplemented by 10 in-depth interviews. - Common implementation challenges that organizations face include ensuring data quality, addressing security and privacy concerns, and integrating the new technology with legacy systems. - Despite the challenges, International Data Corporation (IDC) forecasts that by 2030, 45% of organizations will be orchestrating AI agents at a large scale across their business functions. - Key to successful implementation is establishing strong governance frameworks to manage risks such as unexpected agent behavior, cost volatility, and potential data hallucinations.
