Ever wished you could just tell your computer to "buy the best concert tickets for under £150" and have it done?

Welcome to the agentic web, the next evolution of the internet that we explore in this episode of AI Moment.

We break down what this monumental shift from a "search" model to an "agent" model means for you and your business.

This new phase isn't about chatbots answering questions; it's about autonomous AI agents with the authority and budget to execute complex tasks on our behalf.

As we discuss,

"The agentic web is basically the next phase of where we will have agents or bots that will go and complete tasks on its own and have a way to spend some money or a set budget on an action to take." With major players like Anthropic and Microsoft building the technical foundation, this future is closer than you think—potentially on a 12 to 18-month roadmap.

We unpack the enormous opportunities this creates. For businesses that prepare now, the potential is vast.

As we argue, "If you invest early, because the adoption will be slower and then ramp right up, there's a huge opportunity to make significant ROI in this."

However, we also tackle the significant challenges, from security and fraud to the need for robust governance frameworks when AI has access to your wallet.

Finally, we look at the workforce transformation ahead. This isn't about job replacement but job evolution, requiring new strategies across entire organizations. "Marketing's gonna have to adapt to agentic marketing, customer services... they're gonna be dealing with bots, not just consumers and customers."
