Analysis & Trend Insights
Expansion of AI in Scientific Research
A major 2026 trend is AI moving beyond business automation to become a key player in scientific discovery. Microsoft analysis suggests AI will soon have the capability to independently form hypotheses and design experiments in fields like physics, chemistry, and biology.
Accelerating Commercialization of Physical AI and Robotics
Both IBM and NVIDIA highlight that robotics and physical AI are set to be major growth sectors in 2026. Samsung's record sales of its robot vacuum (surpassing 20,000 units per month) show that these predictions are becoming reality.
Limits and Trust Issues with Business AI Agents
According to an MIT Sloan Management Review report, experiments by Anthropic and Carnegie Mellon show that AI agents still have error rates too high to be trusted with financial business processes. This suggests that for high-risk decision-making, AI must still operate under human supervision.
Proliferation of Enterprise AI Adoption
The Deloitte 2026 State of AI report analyzes that companies are now standing at the starting line of leveraging the "true potential" of AI. Much like the case of Kurly’s acquisition in Korea, firms are increasingly focused on strengthening their own proprietary AI capacities.
