AI and Intelligent Agents Become Everyday Work Support
AI is no longer just a research assistant sitting on the sidelines. In 2026, it will increasingly support day-to-day work by prioritizing tasks, surfacing risks, and guiding next steps. This matters because it changes how work gets done, not just how fast it gets done. That said, AI only works as well as the environment it operates in.
