Research suggests that almost everyone wants an AI agent – they are the best things since sliced data. But what are these agents actually doing within enterprises? In many cases, their work may be to help in building even more agents. In most examples, agents help IT departments manage system performance, possibly including technical grounds of AI agents. However, the cases of use differ by the industry.
According to a recent recent, 96% of a man-making organization plan to expand its use of AI during the next 12 months. survey Among 1,484 IT leaders of technology specialist Claudeer. This is a large percentage for any survey subject – minimum 10% of respondents usually have outlair. The majority, 57%, said that they have already implemented AI agents in the last two years. At the same time, fear of data privacy, integration and data quality can potentially spoil the party, showing the survey.

Most of the (61%) AI agents in production are embedded within IT operations. Major applications being taken by agents include performance adaptation bots (66%), security monitoring agent (63%), and development assistant (62%).
So, where are these agents coming from? Two-thirds (66%) of the respondents create agents on the Enterprise AI Infrastructure platform, while 60% leverage agent capabilities are embedded in core applications. The survey authors said, “This hybrid approach reflects a clear preference for scalable, safe and close-to-detaa sins.”
Outside IT adaptation, initial deployment of AI agents focuses on customer-focus operations. AI agents are used for customer support (78%), process automation (71%), and predictive analytics (57%).

When asked what techniques they currently use or plan to use agent AI, the respondents identified the Enterprise AI Infrastructure Platform (66%), embedded within applications (60%) to agent capabilities (60%), and dedicated enterprise AI agent platforms and framework (60%).
AI agents are certainly not correct, and the deployment faces many issues similar to the previous generations of technology. Top concerns with deployment of AI agent include data privacy anxiety (53%), integration with existing systems (40%), and high implementation costs (39%).
More than one -third (37%) of respondents report that integrating AI agents into current systems and workflows has been “very” or “extremely” challenging. “In other words, deploying AI agents is not a plug-and-play effort,” authors said. Then, the more things change with technology, the more challenges the challenges are.
Agent AI vendors and supporters to cut their work to further change further changes. Technology leaders want to see more features in AI agents, which are deployed, including strong data privacy and security facilities (65%), rapid training and adaptation (54%), natural language processing (51%), and better relevant understanding (50%).

You can add different types of use cases by the industry to the list of challenges, including:
- In finance and insurance, fraud detection (56%), risk evaluation (44%), and investment advisors (38%) are cases of major use.
- In manufacturing, top applications include process automation (49%), supply chain adaptation (48%), and quality control (47%).
- In healthcare, major use cases include appointment scheduling (51%), diagnostic assistance (50%), and medical record processing (47%).
- In telecommunications, top applications are customer support bots (49%), customer experience agents (44%), and security monitoring agents (49%).

Once again, for the most part, these approaches are not novels or new to those who have implemented the previous generations of technology:
- Strengthen data foundation and integration capabilities: “Enterprises should ensure that they have modern data architecture and integrated platforms that AI agents can safely handle the quantity and variety of data required.”
- Start with high-effects projects to give immediate ROI and grow from there: “Survey respondents focused on customer support and process automation, as cases of initial use, suggesting these areas that they are good launch pads as they address real pain points and are the results of average.”
- Install accountability: “Enterprises should clarify: Who is responsible for the performance of an agent? Is it a developer who has built it, the owner of the business that uses it, or the operation team that oversees it?”
- Create the structure of governance and morality: “Include mechanisms to audit the bias, ensure transparency in agent decision making, and review the agent behavior regularly against enterprise policies and user expectations.”
- Promote the culture of Upskil Teams and Human-AI Cooperation: “Go beyond basic training to cultivate hybrid skill sets-people who can not only build and integrate AI agents, but can also understand their arguments, boundaries and developed abilities. Prioritizing hands, encouraging continuous learning, encouraging encouragement and encouraging knowledge in roles.”
The strength of feeling in survey reactions shows that AI agents are the next wave of AI, which provides vast, complex AI systems that many business leaders were spreading. It will be interesting to see if 96% of employed adopting rate.
