Why shared memory is agentic AI’s biggest consumer moment

Over the past couple of years, we’ve watched AI go from novelty to utility. Chatbots became copilots, copilots became workflows, and workflows are now inching toward something bigger: Agentic systems or multiple AIs that can plan, act, and coordinate on your behalf.
