The world will truly understand the value of artificial intelligence once autonomous ‘agentic AI’ becomes part of our everyday lives — that’s how Fujitsu describes it in the Fujitsu Technology and Service Vision 2025.
In this article, we explore the future of work, where humans and AI agents collaborate to enhance human creativity. We also highlight the potential risks of AI, including growing social disparities and rising energy demands.
How we work with AI agents
To illustrate how the future can leverage collaboration between people and AI, let's explore a scenario from Fujitsu's Technology Vision. This vision, presented through the experiences of characters at an AI-powered company, illustrates how evolving technology could transform the way people work.
Our scenario is set in the near future at the imaginary company Biomaterial. It follows Lee, who oversees a project to develop new clothing materials, supported by his AI assistant, Nova. We see Lee utilizing Nova for tasks such as patent research and document preparation.
“AI remains a tool we use — but it’s becoming a far more powerful and accessible one,” says Hiroshi Nishikawa, Senior Director of the Technology Marketing Strategy Division at Fujitsu.
“In FT&SV 2025, we imagine a society where AI becomes more than just a tool — it’s a trusted partner, almost like ‘Another Me.’”
Competition is intensifying in the development of agentic AI, and Fujitsu is one of the companies leading the way.
Fujitsu has released AI agents that include one designed to autonomously support meeting discussions by suggesting relevant information based on the conversation. Another is a legal support agent that analyzes legal documents, builds databases, and highlights potential risks.
Nishikawa pointed out that not many AI agents can operate autonomously. “However, in the not-too-distant future, AI will be able to assess information and provide suggestions whenever instructed. Furthermore, we believe that AI will start connecting with other AIs, enabling them to take over some of our tasks.”
He says such change will allow humans to focus on creative work. “We created the story of Lee and Nova to show readers how drastically our work style will change,” says Nishikawa.
