In 2026, artificial intelligence will continue to develop rapidly. Many industry experts believe that "multi-agent" will become a new trend in the artificial intelligence industry in the new year. From consuming services to organizing production, agents are evolving from tools to "new subjects" of the Internet and "new organizations" of enterprise operations. On this new track of reconstructing business rules and technological paradigms, China is also ushering in a historic opportunity. In the era of mobile Internet, the consumption field does not rely on the Internet platform as an intermediary, and many people are accustomed to shopping on the e-commerce platform. With the support of AI, the situation is becoming different. On January 15, Alibaba's Qianwen App was connected to businesses such as Taobao, flash purchase, Alipay, and Feizhu. It can directly realize AI shopping functions such as ordering takeout, shopping, and booking airline tickets without jumping. When AI assistants are able to complete complex tasks in real life, the development of intelligent agents has also moved from "chat and conversation" to the "era of doing things". In the future, when you need to book a hotel, just say a word to your AI assistant, and it may be able to directly communicate with the hotel's "AI customer service" to complete the reservation. Various lifestyle services such as ordering meals, hailing cars, shopping, etc. will be completed through this "point-to-point" intelligent agent dialogue method. Intelligent agents will gradually replace existing software and become the primary interface for personal and business services. ”Chang Gaowei, the initiator of ANP open source technology community, believes that with the development of agent related technologies, the future Internet will shift its interaction agents from people to agents, instead of relying on traditional Internet platforms as intermediaries. Based on the new paradigm of interaction brought by agent technology, consumer Internet is expected to usher in a new competitive pattern. Alibaba is fully entering the consumer AI market and sees the Qianwen project as the "future battle of the AI era"; Ant's full modal AI assistant "Lingguang" and AI health application "Ant Afu" are exploring the vertical fields of super applications and health respectively; Byte's "Doubao" has become the first AI native application with a daily life of more than 100 million...... Internet giants have taken steps to seize the next generation of entry level AI applications. In addition to the "big factory" with a strong capital pool and industrial ecology, Chang Gaowei believes that independent big model companies and intelligent start-ups are also expected to gain competitive opportunities in the next generation of Internet competition because they naturally tend to build an open ecology and break platform barriers. For example, using online travel software to book hotels, in the future, through direct connection between intelligent agents, the cost reduction dividend can be shared with consumers and businesses. Enterprise management helps one person command a virtual team. When intelligent agent technology begins to reshape the way individuals obtain information and services, a more profound transformation is also extending from the market consumption field to enterprise production and management. The boss wants to find a talent who not only understands the customs and traditions of Central Asia, but also has management consulting experience in the fields of artificial intelligence and digital transformation "- When receiving such an instruction, the HR (human resources) intelligent agent immediately started working. From job posting, resume screening to AI interviews, AI can not only accurately capture the boss's intention map, but also perform multi-dimensional portrait matching among massive resumes, completely freeing HR from mechanical and tedious processes. Recently, Zero One Thing demonstrated through the practical operation of enterprise multi-agent systems that one employee can command a complete virtual team in the future. Behind this is the rapid evolution of intelligent agent capabilities. Zhao Binqiang, Vice President of Zero One Thing Technology and Product Center, analyzed that the evolution of AI agents has gone through three stages: L1, L2, and L3 levels: from "workflow agents" designed by humans, to "inference agents" with task planning capabilities, and now to "Multi Agent multi-agent systems". 2026 will usher in the first year of large-scale deployment of enterprise level multi-agent systems. In the future, China will become a "super engine" and artificial intelligence is profoundly reshaping the way society produces and provides services. What are the opportunities for China to compete for the top of the wave? Zhao Binqiang proposed that China has the world's most complete industrial chain, leading open-source models, a super large market, and rich complex business scenarios, providing a natural testing ground and evolutionary soil for enterprise level multi-agent systems, and will become the "super engine" for the landing of global multi-agent systems. What is the probability that the top AI companies in the world will have Chinese teams in the next 3 to 5 years? Regarding this, Yao Shunyu, Chief AI Scientist of Tencent's CEO Office, has a more optimistic judgment. He believes that China has enormous advantages in engineering implementation and industrial landing. Once the technological roadmap is verified, it can quickly follow up and partially surpass it. But he also pointed out that the bottleneck of computing power, mature To B (enterprise level) market environment, and stronger adventurous spirit and innovative culture are still areas that need further breakthroughs. Tang Jie, a professor at Tsinghua University and founder of Zhipu, believes that the current generation of "post-90s" and "post-00s" in China has shown a stronger spirit of adventure than their predecessors, creating a better development environment and giving a group of smart people who dare to take risks more time to innovate. This is China's opportunity. (New Society)
