Machines of Buying and Selling Grace - Adam Behrens, New Generation
This talk explores the evolution of the store concept in the age of AI, moving from physical locations to digitized online presences, and now towards an agentic future. The core thesis is that AI will digitize not just merchandise and distribution, but also the participants and their interactions, leading to dynamic, real-time, and generative interfaces for both human and agentic consumers. This shift aims to enhance transactions by moving beyond static websites to sophisticated agent-to-agent or agent-to-API interactions.
