Why the cloud is holding back agentic AI

Agentic operations are rapidly transitioning from experimental tools to active participants in enterprise workflows. Unlike traditional generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) applications that primarily produce content, agentic systems interact with tools – namely application programming interfaces (APIs), retrieve corporate information and execute changes in enterprise systems – opening unprecedented opportunities for automation.
This evolution from passive content generation to active and autonomous participation marks a fundamental shift in the role of AI in the enterprise.
