The Trend of the Agent Internet

With the rapid advancement of large language models and generative AI, AI agents are moving from concept to large-scale adoption and becoming the core connected entities of the Internet, which is being reshaped from "host interconnection + information exchange" to "agent interconnection + capability collaboration".

The Necessity of Agent Networking Infrastructure

Traditional networks are centered on hosts and information delivery and cannot support the registration, discovery and collaboration of massive heterogeneous agents. Building open, trusted, high-performance agent networking infrastructure is a key prerequisite for large-scale deployment of the Agent Internet.
