Age of Action: AI Assistants Get Direct Access to Services

By mid-March 2026, AI development has moved beyond the stage of simple text chats. Leading platforms are implementing deep integration of autonomous agents (Agentic AI). ChatGPT technologies and analogs can now interact directly with consumer and B2B services.

The user no longer writes code or clicks buttons: the AI agent is capable of independently assembling a website structure, configuring SEO, and attaching a payment gateway (as Wix is implementing). Simultaneously, APIs are opening up for ordering food (DoorDash), hailing a ride (Uber), or managing playlists (Spotify) directly from the neural network's interface. AI is becoming the universal UI (User Interface) layer of the internet. This fundamentally changes the app economy: user attention is locked inside the chatbot, and the platforms themselves turn into a faceless backend for executing AI commands.
