AI is evolving from "answering AI" to "working AI." AI agents are rapidly spreading worldwide. A key person leading their development granted us an exclusive interview. How will this new AI change our lives? ■Next-Generation AI That "Does Everything" Yuko Watanabe, Reporter "Many visitors have gathered here because the developer of OpenClaw, currently the most talked-about AI in the world, is visiting Japan." Peter Steinberger, Developer of the AI ​​Agent "OpenClaw" "Instead of fearing AI, we should think about how it can be useful." OpenClaw, an AI agent that acts on its own when given instructions. It's a technology that sets itself apart from anything before. Visitor: "When you ask questions with ChatGPT or Gemini, you get answers, but it's an endless cycle of one question, one answer. But with OpenClaw, you just say one word and it does everything." Visitor: "I've heard that letting AI handle all the 'troublesome' and 'time-consuming' tasks is a good approach for the future, so I want to try that." What exactly are these AI agents that are taking the world by storm? ■From "Answering AI" to "Working AI" Entrepreneur Kai gives instructions to the AI ​​while holding a potato. --You're not being lazy? AI Agent User, Kai Browkering (25): "I'm not being lazy. I'm working seriously." For Kai, the AI ​​agent is an indispensable partner. How it works... Kai-san: "If I say, 'Please schedule a 30-minute meeting with TBS tomorrow morning, around 10 AM,' it opens my Google Calendar and actually schedules it for me." Until now, generative AIs like ChatGPT only provided answers to questions, but AI agents, upon receiving instructions, will launch apps themselves, create documents, and perform tasks using multiple tools. It's an evolution from "answering AI" to "working AI." In fact, even the fries Kai-san was eating were— ■ "An Era Where Anything Is Possible": Major Companies Also Adopting AI Agents Kai-san (approximately 40 minutes ago): "If I say, 'Can you order two medium-sized McDonald's fries for me?', it actually opens the browser, logs into my Uber Eats account, and searches for McDonald's." The screen displayed was the Uber Eats order screen. Kai-san: "I actually went to the potato menu, added a medium-sized order, and now the order is complete. I think we're in an era where AI can do anything." The entire process, from searching to ordering, was done by AI. This kind of technology is changing the way we work. Kai-san: "My AI agent does various tasks like my employees, so I'm in a position to give instructions and approve the work. I think 'AI agents' make daily life more efficient and easier." Major companies are also moving forward with the introduction of AI agents. SoftBank Group's CEO, Masayoshi Son, announced a plan to create 1,000 "AI agents" per employee. Rakuten Group has also started its own service using "agent-type AI" that autonomously carries out tasks. How will new AI change our lives? ■What will happen to human jobs with "working AI"? An interview with the developer Peter Steinberger, the developer of the AI ​​agent "OpenClaw," gave an interview. Peter Steinberger, developer of the AI ​​agent "OpenClaw" "What was once passive has become proactive. It can now handle tasks that previously took up a lot of time. If there's a limit, it might be the human imagination required to decide 'what to have it do.'" He says AI agents will become "a familiar presence" in the near future. Peter Steinberger "Time is never enough. By automating the mundane tasks, we can dedicate more time to the difficult and interesting things that humans need. (AI) exists to meet human needs. I think any method is fine as long as it's for what's necessary." Do you think AI agents will eliminate our jobs? Peter Steinberger "I think some things will be created, and some will disappear. But I don't think all human jobs will disappear. There are endless possibilities. If it weren't for AI, I wouldn't be here." ■ "All-purpose AI": From reservations to payments Ayako Uemura, newscaster: Japanese companies are also increasingly adopting AI agents. For example, let's say you want to travel abroad. Previous AI systems only offered suggestions like, "How about doing this?" However, AI agents create your desired itinerary. You can set dates through a calendar app, and even select travel apps and websites yourself, booking flights, hotels, restaurants, and more… ▼TBS NEWS DIG Official Website: https://newsdig.tbs.co.jp/ ▼Please subscribe to our channel!    / @tbsnewsdig   ▼Submit information here: "TBS Insiders" https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/tbs-ins... ▼Submit video here: "TBS Scoop Submission" https://www.tbs.co.jp/news_sp/toukou.... #news #TBS #newsdig
