Companies like Business Insider and Microsoft Corp. Leverage Agentic AI for Competitive Advantage
Published on 6.3.25
The integration of agentic AI systems into various industries is transforming the way businesses operate, with many companies embracing these technologies to stay competitive. Business Insider's decision to lay off about 21% of its workforce and focus on AI-driven products reflects a broader trend in the industry.
The company has already launched multiple AI-powered tools, including gen-AI onsite search and an AI-powered paywall, and plans to introduce new products soon. Other companies like Microsoft Corp. are also investing heavily in AI research and development.
PwC's 2025 Global AI Jobs Barometer highlights the growing demand for workers with AI skills, with wages rising twice as fast in AI-exposed industries. This shift towards AI is driving a need for more practical and adaptable skill sets in these sectors.
