| Trend | Key Insight | Corresponding Chapter |
|---|---|---|
| ** Agentic AI at Scale** | Gartner predicts ~50% of enterprise software will embed autonomous Agent tools by 2026; McKinsey estimates $2.6-4.4T annual value; but >40% of Agentic AI projects may be cut for governance gaps | 15_智能体 — 240 Agent full-stack docs |
| ** Reasoning Models & Test-Time Compute** | DeepSeek-R1 pioneered "test-time compute scaling"; RL training compute grows 10x every few months; o3/R1/Llama-4 reasoning model roadmap | 05_大模型/Reasoning_Models + GRPO |
| ** Small Models & Efficient Inference** | Compact LMs projected to handle 60% of business AI tasks, cutting infra costs 50%; "efficiency is the new scaling law" | Quantization + Edge LLM |
| ** Multimodal + Embodied AI** | Multimodal models fuse vision, language and action; 58% of enterprises already use physical robots; VLA is the new frontier | Computer Vision + VLA |
| ** AI Safety & Compliance** | EU AI Act enters enforcement; 80% of regulated industries must implement mandatory compliance frameworks; RSI becomes new alignment focus | Ethics & Safety + RSI Concept |
| ** MCP/A2A Protocol Standardization** | MCP (Model Context Protocol) becomes the de facto Agent tool-calling standard; A2A (Agent-to-Agent) drives multi-agent collaboration | Agent Protocols |
Recommendation: 2026 AI practitioners should focus on Agent engineering + Inference efficiency + Safety & compliance — this knowledge base covers all three through LLMOps + Agent + Safety.
