A special session will feature Takafumi Horie and Noritaka Okabe discussing how finance and business could change as AI agents become economic actors.
WebX2026 announced a special dialogue titled "The Day AI Spends Money: Reading a Turbulent Future in the Agent Economy," scheduled for July 13 and 14 at The Prince. The session will bring together Takafumi Horie and Noritaka Okabe to discuss how finance and business may change as AI agents become economic actors. The framing points to growing interest in an agent economy, where AI agents (software that can act autonomously) could participate in transactions and decision-making.
