Helpfeel Attends Agentic AI Summit 2026 to Explore Cutting-Edge AI Trends
Helpfeel, a pioneering knowledge technology company based in Kyoto, Japan, participated in the Agentic AI Summit 2026, which took place on August 1-2 at UC Berkeley in California. This event focused on autonomous AI, and the participation came as part of Helpfeel’s ongoing research and development efforts through its HACK Lab initiative.
The Agentic AI Summit is a significant gathering organized by UC Berkeley's Berkeley RDI (Center for Responsible, Decentralized Intelligence). The conference attracted around 5,000 in-person attendees and approximately 100,000 online participants. The diverse lineup included around 200 speakers from leading AI research and development organizations like OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Meta, Amazon, NVIDIA, Microsoft, and IBM.
Helpfeel's Participation:
Helpfeel was represented by its CEO, Issey Rakusai, who also serves as head of HACK Lab, along with their North America director. They engaged in valuable discussions with AI researchers and industry professionals, gathering insights on how autonomous AI is transitioning from experimentation to practical implementation. This hands-on interaction enabled Helpfeel to compile and analyze the key takeaways from the summit, which are detailed in their latest report.
Overview of the Summit:
One of the highlights of the summit was the complete sell-out of tickets, priced at $500. The conference illustrated a growing excitement surrounding autonomous AI, with discussion flowing on topics spanning AI capabilities to practical business applications. From various onsite sessions and research presentations, Helpfeel identified four major trends influencing the field of autonomous AI:
1. Humans Steer and Agents Execute:
- A shift from traditional 'Copilot' roles where AI merely aids humans, to a model where humans dictate the direction while AI agents autonomously gather information, implement actions, and validate results.
2. Acceleration of Workforce 'Seniorization' Through Automation:
- As AI takes over routine and basic tasks, humans are increasingly required to engage in higher-level responsibilities such as design, evaluation, and decision-making from an early stage in their careers.
3. Transitioning Bottlenecks from Model Performance to Organizational Governance:
- The barriers to AI implementation are shifting from technical challenges to organizational factors such as authority management, data access, and trustworthiness, establishing a critical need for safe organizational frameworks to execute AI tasks.
4. Emergence of A2A (Agent to Agent) Interactions and AI Economic Ecosystems:
- Discussions revolved around AI agents managing their own budgets and wallets, engaging in transactions with external services, and trading with other AI agents using stablecoins like USD Coin (USDC). This is expanding customer interactions from 'human vs corporation' to 'AI agent vs AI agent'.

HACK Lab is an innovative R&D project at Helpfeel where engineers and business developers engage in rotating stays to simultaneously conduct cutting-edge AI research and explore new business initiatives. This hands-on approach allows them to prototype ideas generated during local hackathons and collaborate with top engineers and entrepreneurs directly, enabling rapid cycles of prototyping, testing, improvement, and global rollout of AI products and knowledge data sets.
Helpfeel focuses on optimizing vast knowledge assets within organizations to create an 'AI-Ready' knowledge base that AI can readily utilize. This includes structuring both documented knowledge like manuals and FAQs, as well as harnessing latent expertise from veteran employees. Their comprehensive suite of solutions, ranging from AI-powered customer service agents to operator support and VoC analysis, offers businesses the competitive edge needed in today's fast-paced environment.
With over 900 deployments across various enterprise sectors, including finance, infrastructure, manufacturing, and retail (as of April 2026), Helpfeel is committed to facilitating organizations' AI readiness.
