Trend Global foresight sources converge on AI agents, AI coworkers and AI-native work

Summary

The plan compares the technology outlooks of eight foresight sources, namely MIT Technology Review, Deloitte, the Guardian, Gartner, Forbes, McKinsey, KPMG and the World Economic Forum, across ten next-generation fields. In the AI field the most frequently repeated theme is the advance of AI agents, including multi-agent systems in which agents collaborate with one another. Several sources also highlight the application of AI at work, with items such as AI coworkers, autonomous coding and AI-native development platforms. Other items include redesigning organizations to be AI-friendly, domain-specific models and agents acting as intelligent co-workers that automate decisions. Read together, the table shows broad agreement that AI is moving from a tool to an active participant in work.
