What happened
AI development now encompasses five distinct stages, progressing beyond reactive Large Language Models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Bard. The progression includes Agentic AI, capable of independent task execution like research and writing, and Multi-agent systems, where multiple AIs collaborate to complete complex projects from initiation to conclusion. This evolution culminates in Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), demonstrating human-like cognitive abilities, and ultimately Superintelligence, which surpasses human problem-solving capacity in fields like medicine and physics.
Why it matters
This structured definition of AI evolution clarifies the trajectory for technology leaders, highlighting the imminent shift from current LLM capabilities to autonomous and collaborative AI systems. For solution architects and platform engineers, this means preparing for infrastructure that supports multiple AI agents working without direct human intervention, fundamentally altering project execution and resource management. The transition necessitates new approaches to oversight and integration as AI systems gain independent operational capacity.
