Key Points
- The paper reviews real-world, practitioner conference talks to explain how AI agentic systems are being designed and adopted in industrial settings.
- By analyzing 138 recorded talks, it assesses adoption approaches, evaluates common architectural strategies and recurring patterns, and catalogs application domains and implementation technologies.
- It focuses specifically on LLM-driven agentic systems, including how teams implement and operate these systems in practice rather than purely theoretical designs.
- The goal is to help practitioners turn current “AI agents” hype into actionable design takeaways derived from reported industrial experiences.
