""AI agentic workflows will drive massive AI progress [in 2024] - perhaps even more than the next generation of foundation models," Ng wrote in his post. "This is an important trend, and I urge everyone who works in AI to pay attention to it.""
""Agentic AI shifts the paradigm from 'AI as a tool' to 'AI as a teammate.' And that AI teammate is equipped to act independently based on its goals," Emanuela Zaccone, staff product manager in AI for Cybersecurity at Sysdig, tells ITPro. "While we're still just beginning to scratch the surface of all the benefits agentic AI can afford to us, it also introduces new security risks.""
Agentic AI enables AI models to perform tasks autonomously and acts as an independent, goal-directed teammate rather than a passive tool. The concept traces back to the 1990s and gained renewed momentum after high-profile endorsements in early 2024. A 2025 survey of over 500 technology leaders found 48% of companies have deployed agentic AI, and half of respondents expect more than half of AI deployments to be autonomous within 24 months. Businesses are rapidly adopting agentic workflows for productivity gains, but increased autonomy creates novel cybersecurity and governance challenges that warrant new risk-management strategies.
