A.I. agents confront the last big obstacle

To perform complex tasks, like booking a flight, AI agents will need permissions to work on behalf of a person

Key Points

• Authorizing AI agents to access apps and websites could be the last major challenge in building agents that can perform complex tasks for people.

• The AI ecosystem is working on the “plumbing” that will make such complex AI agents possible.

• Arcade.dev is developing tools to help AI agents securely sign into websites and apps, predicting increased AI autonomy in the next two years.
