YouTube video by LARRUZ (uploaded June 9, 2024) surveying 10 major AI developments expected in 2024–2025. The first and emphasized topic is AI "agents": systems that can perform multi-step tasks autonomously when given goals/parameters. The speaker highlights Google’s agent taxonomy (customer, employee, creative, data, code, security agents) and notes OpenAI’s work on agent software that can operate devices to automate tasks (e.g., moving data between document and spreadsheet). The presenter considers agents an early but pivotal shift that will noticeably affect users once breakthroughs improve current demo capabilities.

So in today's video, I'm going to be telling you guys a Look at the 10 major things that are going to be coming in 2024/2025 for artificial intelligence. I'm not sure how long this video is going to be, but there will be timestamps so you can take a look at everything that is going to be released. And the future is most certainly exciting, so let's not waste any more time. So one of the first things that is basically here is of course, agents. Now the, the video you're currently seeing behind you is a video that I recently made on Google's Agents. Now, this is why the, you know, the text right here isn't, I guess you could say, synced up is because what Google did and what many other companies are trying to pivot to in late 2024 and in 2025 is of course, agents. Now agents essentially just refers to, I guess you could say AI systems that are able to, I guess you could say kind of do whatever they want and go out and accomplish a kind of task that the person has set out for them. And I think this is going to be one of the most pivotal moments that does happen in AI because this is going to be one of the moments that actually impacts you. Now the reason this is going to actually impact us and the reason you're going to truly feel this is because as you can see in Google's demo, if I pause it right here, you can see that they're trying to basically hit every single agent aspect that there pretty much is going to be in Google since they've decided to, I guess you could say kind of call the red flag. You can see right here that they've got customer agents, employee agents, creative agents, data agents, code agents and security agents. And this video, there's basically quite a lot of different features. It's a 50 minute video where I've kind of cut the, the long drawn out Google, I guess you could say announcement into a shorter video about where they talk about, you know, employee agents. And this is going to be really game changing because it's a complete difference in how we currently use AI systems. Currently we use AI systems in this, in the sense, in the general sense that, you know, we talk to these AI systems and we interface with them in a chat interface and with this one we're going to simply ask the AI system to do something, outline some parameters and then the AI system is going to be able to go ahead and accomplish those tasks. And that is why I think this is going to be probably one of the most pivotal moments. Now, this is still pretty, pretty early in its stages. Like, currently, we're still in a very, I guess you could say, basic area for the agents. And the current demos that I'm seeing from some of the top labs, they don't seem too, too impressive. So it seems like there is a breakthrough that is, you know, probably needed. But I think whenever this breakthrough does happen, because some of the larger, larger companies are really, really working on this, I'm pretty sure this is going to be crazy. Now, one of the things is that OpenAI have actually spoken about this. You can see that OpenAI have shifted its battleground to software that operates devices and that automates tasks. So essentially, you can see right here, it says OpenAI is developing a form of agent software to automate complex tasks by effectively taking over a customer's device. The customer could then ask the ChatGPT agent to transfer data from a document to a spreadsheet for analysis, for instance, or to just completely do random different things, or to.
