At COMPUTEX 2026 Taipei International Computer Exhibition, Cristiano Amon, the President and CEO of Qualcomm, delivered the opening keynote address. He highlighted that 2026 signifies the inaugural year in the development of AI agents. Agents have emerged as the primary driver of demand for AI tokens, propelling the widespread adoption of AI and shaping both AI architectures and economic models. In the future, agents will take the initiative to perform computations on behalf of users, automatically assign tasks, and maximize computing power utilization across all scenarios. Qualcomm has introduced the concept of a "Computing Continuum," creating a computing power system that spans from milliwatt to kilowatt levels, thereby fully enabling distributed intelligence. Amon also provided a sneak peek at Qualcomm's new data center brand, Dragonfly, signaling that Qualcomm has achieved a comprehensive layout across the entire computing continuum, from micro wearable devices to large-scale data centers.
