At the GOTC Global Open-Source Technology Summit, which took place on November 1, 2025, Kaifu Lee, CEO of 01.AI and Chairman of Innovation Works, shared his insights. He emphasized that AI Agents are far more than just software tools for CEOs; they represent a transformative skill set that can reshape a company's strategic execution and organizational framework. Lee proposed that by adopting a modular, building-block approach, Agents could be seamlessly integrated to form a highly efficient organizational structure.

Kaifu Lee is convinced that the future competitive edge of enterprises will hinge on large-scale, high-value data loops. He envisions AI super-employee Agents continuously iterating and refining their capabilities. He highlighted that as the cost of AI inference declines, the operational expenses associated with Agents will plummet, enabling them to accomplish tasks in mere seconds. Looking ahead, he predicted that a company's organizational makeup could predominantly consist of Agents, with humans taking on more intricate, strategic roles.

Furthermore, Lee floated the intriguing possibility of one-person unicorn companies emerging in the future. In such a scenario, a single entrepreneur could leverage Agents to build a valuable enterprise. These AI Agents, capable of working nonstop 24/7 and being easily replicated, would serve as the backbone of the business.

Additionally, during the summit, it was announced that 01.AI would join forces with Open Source China to unveil the 'Open Agent Kit Platform.' This platform aims to deliver intelligent agent solutions tailored to the needs of enterprises.
