“Create an app that only shows exclusive articles by time.”

“Understood. Should it only show the article headlines? Or should it be in a tiled layout?”

It has now become an era in which a desired application (app) can be created instantly with just a spoken command. At Enhance, an artificial intelligence (AI) operating system (OS) development company visited last month, an app that selects and displays only articles carrying the keyword “exclusive” each hour was built in “30 minutes” using only voice instructions. When the functions and design of the desired app are described verbally, “planning agents” and “design agents” within the AI OS collaborate like in-house planning, development, and design teams to produce the final output.

Lee Seung-hyun, CEO of Enhance (photo), said, “An AI OS literally plays the role of an operating system that enables multiple AI agents to carry out their assigned tasks,” adding, “It helps determine which tasks must be done first to produce the final result and which AI agent is best suited to perform each of those tasks.” Just as various applications such as Hangul word processor, Word, and Internet browsers are installed on Windows and each is responsible for its own work, multiple AI agents operate on an AI OS platform, each handling its assigned tasks.

● “A year for creating business outcomes through AI agent collaboration”

Recently, “AI orchestration,” which optimizes collaboration among multiple agents to automate complex tasks, has emerged as a key topic in the AI industry. The trend is shifting away from focusing primarily on improving the performance of each individual AI agent toward developing platforms on which AI agents can collaborate as a single team.

In its Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends report for this year, global consulting group Gartner stated that if 2025 was “the year of the agent,” this year will see these agents move beyond operating individually to being integrated into an “agent ecosystem.” Deloitte similarly predicted in its Tech Trends report published this year that “if last year proved the functional viability of AI agents, this year will see the creation of end-to-end business outcomes through the sophisticated orchestration of multiple specialized agents.”

● Companies forecast to hold 150,000 AI agents within two years

“OpenKlo,” an AI agent that became popular earlier this year mainly in Silicon Valley, has fueled this trend. Once OpenKlo was released as open source, the number of AI agents increased exponentially and the importance of AI orchestration also grew. In fact, Gartner forecast that within the next two years, the average number of AI agents at Fortune Global 500 companies worldwide will exceed 150,000.

The challenge for companies now is to select the core agents from the multitude of AI agents and enable them to collaborate organically. Lee explained, “There are about 1,500 AI agents within Enhance’s AI OS,” adding, “We have optimized it so that only the AI agents needed according to each company’s characteristics are activated.”

In line with this trend, NVIDIA has also launched “NemoKlo,” an enterprise AI agent platform. NemoKlo is, in simple terms, a corporate version of “OpenKlo.” It is a platform that has been technologically enhanced for security, targeting enterprises that are more sensitive than individuals to issues such as leakage of corporate secrets. A NVIDIA representative said, “There is very strong corporate demand for a platform that allows companies to develop the AI agents needed in their workflows without security concerns.”
