DAVOS WATCH: ‘Next Phase of Intelligence’

‘AI systems are advancing faster than expected and the next few years could redefine what we mean by intelligence. Will progress continue through scale alone, or are new breakthroughs in algorithms, data and agentic interaction needed to reshape the path ahead?

‘As models begin to learn, plan and act in digital and physical environments, what kind of intelligence are we creating and how will it shape humanity?’
