5 Predictions for Agentic AI in 2026

As 2025 comes to a close, Invisible Machines hosts Robb Wilson and Josh Tyson revisit the conversations that shaped this year and outline the forces about to redefine agentic AI in 2026. Their message is clear: next year will challenge long-held assumptions about how organizations operate, how investors evaluate value, and how consumers interact with technology.

Several disruptive trends are converging at once. Outbound AI is rapidly shifting into the hands of consumers, unlocking powerful new modes of automation and communication. Organizations are beginning to adopt agent runtime environments — systems that allow AI agents to be deployed, orchestrated, and scaled like real operational infrastructure. These environments have the potential to transform everything from customer service to internal workflows.

Robb and Josh break down the emerging components of a runtime, offering glimpses of what “AI-native” companies may look like by the end of next year. Their predictions include seismic changes in the expectations investors place on businesses: the ability to operationalize agentic AI won’t be a competitive advantage, it will be the baseline.

The episode also previews conversations with returning guests Ben Goertzel of SingularityNET and Joshua Gans, co-author of Prediction Machines, signaling a year of even deeper inquiry ahead.

If you’re shaping strategy in an AI-accelerated world, this episode offers clarity you can use today. Listen now to dive in.
