41. How Agentic AI Will Rewrite Business with Shashi Jagtap, Founder, Super Agentic AI
Agentic AI isn’t just another tech trend, it's a generational shift that could rewrite how every business operates. In this episode of The Business of AI, Shashi Jagtap, founder of Super Agentic AI and former Apple engineer, reveals why he walked away from one of the world’s most coveted tech jobs to dive head-first into this new frontier. He explains how agentic systems go far beyond ChatGPT-style interactions, giving machines the power to take action, make decisions, and transform entire workflows and why companies that hesitate risk being left behind.
Shashi breaks down the real meaning of “agentic AI,” the explosion of new tools and vendors, and the growing panic among business leaders trying to decide whether to build, buy, or simply keep up. He shares where agentic AI is already working, including coding agents that outperform traditional development processes, and how Super Agentic AI helps organisations adopt these tools safely, securely, and strategically. His fast-growing London Agentic AI community shows just how hungry builders are to swap lessons, share failures, and learn how to apply this technology in the real world.
The conversation also tackles the UK’s role in the global AI race, the urgent need for sovereign AI capabilities, and the government leaders who are pushing hard to make responsible AI a national strength. Looking ahead, Shashi argues that the only way to survive this rapid shift is to stay relentlessly curious, continuously learn, and make AI adoption an active, ongoing practice for businesses, for society, and for the next generation who will grow up in an agentic-first world.
