Yin Qi, chairman of Jieyue Xingchen and Qianli Technology, delivered a keynote speech at the WAIC 2026 conference on the theme "When Agents Enter the Physical World." He highlighted that AI capabilities are crossing a critical threshold, with models now able to work independently for extended periods, signaling a move towards AGI. Qi emphasized that the integration of agent models with next-generation devices will bring intelligence from digital screens into the physical world, transforming agents from simple chat tools into minimal units of productivity capable of perception, decision-making, and task execution. He also outlined three major structural changes driven by the agent wave: new systems (Agentic OS), new carriers (computers, phones, cars, robots as different "bodies" for the same agent), and new networks (A2A networks for agent-to-agent interaction). Qi concluded by stressing the need for new governance mechanisms and social contracts to address the implications of agents operating in the real world, envisioning a future of human-intelligence co-evolution.
