## Why Included

The adoption narrative lacks sample size, methodology, workflow examples, and implementation guidance for improving an agent session.

## Source Summary

OpenAI’s research frames enterprise AI adoption as a shift from assistance toward agent execution, with ChatGPT and Codex as examples rather than implementation guidance.

## Practical Implication

Builders should treat this as evidence of organizational demand for agents that execute work, then look for the underlying research before changing product or deployment plans.

## Agent-Ready Context

OpenAI reports that enterprises are adopting **agentic AI** through products including **ChatGPT and Codex**, and says a group it calls frontier firms is moving ahead in adoption.

Builders should treat this as evidence of organizational demand for agents that execute work, then look for the underlying research before changing product or deployment plans.

The supplied material provides no sample size, methodology, adoption rates, workflow examples, or definition of a frontier firm, so the size of the claimed gap is unclear.
