MIT Technology Review examines the rise of agentic networks
What happened
On 2 November 2026, MIT Technology Review published an article titled "The agentic web is already here", arguing that agents able to act autonomously online have moved from concept to reality. It cites Meta's Muse, OpenAI's Dots and Anthropic's Claude Duet as examples, all accessing bank accounts and email with user authorisation. The report does not disclose launch dates, user numbers or details of the authorisation mechanisms, nor whether similar reports have appeared before.
