Anchoring Technological innovation, Decoding Core Industry Trends

In 2026, AI Agents have evolved from a hot topic of industry discussion into a tangible reality that enterprises and developers must confront. At this year's summit, multiple thought leaders disSECted the critical pathways and challenges of Agent deployment from various angles.

Fang Han, Chairman and CEO of Kunlun Wanwei, addressed how indiViduals and businesses should respond to the Agent disruption from a frontline perspective. He remarked that the disruption is real, but the key question is not whether to be disrupted, but how to navigate the transition period.

Wang Xiaoye, Technical Director of Product Technology at AWS, focused on "bridging the Agent deployment chasm," breaking down the engineering challenges and solutions between top-tier large language models and enterprise-grade AI agents.

Huang Chao, Assistant Professor and Doctoral Supervisor at the University of Hong Kong, explored the technological opportunities and industry challenges brought by the paradigm shift in AI agents from an academic frontier perspective.

Deng Yafeng, Vice President of Shengda Group and CEO of EverMind, shared insights on self-evolving technologies driven by long-term memory, explaining how AI transforms from tool-based applications into sustainable digital Productivity systems.

While Agents became the focal point, the foundational large models that underpin them also continued to push the boundaries of capability. Lin Dahua, Executive Vice President and Chief Scientist of SenseTime, delivered an in-depth analysis on "from multimodal unification to spatial intelligence: moving toward a new AI frontier that can perceive, generate, and act." Dai Wenjun, head of JD.com's JoyInside business, further extended this proposition into the physical world, sharing how AI is stepping out of screens and into real terminals and real scenarios. Qiu Xipeng, Distinguished Professor at Fudan University, Assistant Dean of Shanghai Chuangzhi Institute, and Founder of Mosi intelligence, presented the latest R&D achievements of the MOSS multimodal large model, sharing optimization approaches for frontier technologies.

Deep Dive into vertical Tracks: Frontline Players Share Implementation Practices

When it comes to specific domains, where exactly do the opportunities lie? At the summit, numerous hands-on players from various AI tracks provided concrete answers, presenting mature application cases that are implementable and replicable across industries.

Yi Zhengchao, CEO of Funshion Online, put forward a core thesis, arguing that from AI-powered programming enabling development and creation, to AI video revolutionizing content production, "mass creativity is the core lever of AI productivity."

Zhu Guangxiang, General Manager of Baidu Miaoda Product, shared the product philosophy that "everyone is a creator," showcasing a new paradigm where imAGInation unleashes productivity and AI empowers ordinary users to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

Hu Weiqi, Head of MiniMax's ToB Commercialization in China, delivered a speech titled "Intelligence with Everyone," sharing MiniMax's authentic strategies and reflections from the past year.

Ma Xiaowu, Executive Vice President of Qingsong Health Group, grounded the discussion in the healthcare vertical, presenting a talk on "from evidence-based intelligent agents to AI-driven health service growth flywheels," elaborating on a new type of health service capability centered around AI.

Furthermore, the paradigm reconstruction of AI infrastructure was another key thread at this year's conference. Zhang Lu, Founding Partner of Fusion Fund, proposed a "reshaping of the computing nARRative" from the dual perspective of global capital and industry, delivering an in-depth interpretation of the new AI Infrastructure paradigm shifting from training to inference. Hong Yuan, Chief Product Officer and Senior Vice President of Taiyuan Yuanqi, explored the pathway for domestic computing power to adapt to the development of the new-era AI industry under the theme "Domestic AI Computing Power Grounds a New future for token Intelligence."

GenAI Talk and Agent Roundtable Discussions

Beyond the keynote speeches, the summit featured a heavyweight GenAI Talk and an opinion-intensive Agent Roundtable. In the GenAI Talk session, Shen Yujun, Chief Scientist of Ant Lingbo Technology, and Li Gen, Co-founder and Editor-in-Chief of QbitAI, engaged in a deep dialogue on the core proposition "the second half of AI 2.0: from AIGC to AIGA." Shen reviewed the rapid evolution of AIGC in text, image, and video over recent years and judged that AI 2.0 has entered its second half, undergoing a leap from AIGC to AIGA. He further noted that as AI moves from the digital world to the physical world, technical challenges and deployment opportunities coexist, and that Ant Lingbo's "universal brain" is a direct response to this proposition.

The Agent Roundtable was themed "2026: Uncertainties and Non-Consensus Opportunities in Agent Products." Zhuang Minghao, Vice President and Chief strategy Officer of Quwan Technology and creator of The Art of DRAGon Slaying, Feng Lei, CEO of ColaOS & MarsWave, and Zhang Haoyang, Founder of EvoMap, engaged in a spirited debate. The guests deeply compared the iterative logic of Agent products with traditional apps, shared core criteria for evaluating Agent product value, and discussed product decision-making and feature planning amidst rapid model iteration. On this foundation, they forecasted the future development forms of super Agents versus multi-specialized collaborative Agents, envisioned new collaboration and commercial possibilities within the Agent ecosystem, analyzed non-consensus breakthroughs in the face of homogenized competition, and explored the transformative changes that large-scale AI Agent deployment will bring to industry practitioners' working models.

2026 AIGC Enterprise and Product Watchlists Unveiled
