And Jensen Huang appeared together yesterday in Saudi Arabia to discuss artificial intelligence.
Now Musk saying humanoid robots could create an economy of abundance and make work optional and eliminate poverty.
Well, 2025 has been a year of AI partnerships and Open AI has been in the midst of many of them.
We've seen deals on data centers as well as companies such as Target-making.
Sure.
GPT users have greater access to their items.
This does show how Agente commerce is on the rise, and AI is independently working on behalf of consumers or businesses for shopping and selling.
Well, joining me live here at the New York Stock Exchange is Daniel Wagner, CEO and founder of Resolve AI.
Daniel, good to have you back.
Thank you so much for joining me.
Pleasure to be here.
Thank you.
Well, 2025 has It's been the year for artificial intelligence whether we're talking about work, labor, or retail and commerce.
So tell us what's happening when it comes to a agentic AI and retail.
So there's two ways that consumers are going to interact with digital channels in the future.
The first is the way that we normally interact with e-commerce.
That's end of life, you know, this way of navigating through.
A category list and drilling down and ending up with 40 items and 40s and flipping through.
That's all over.
The future is and we're delivering this now, is you just have a conversation with a fantastically knowledgeable and detailed salesperson who can just navigate you.
Through that site and get you to the products or the services that you want.
So that interaction using generative AI to assist and engage and drive you through to the sales process is very similar to a physical retail store when you're dealing with a very effective salesperson.
But the second way that commerce is going to be transacted is being transacted is that when you're talking to Siri or Google Assistant or Open Air Chat GPT or Perplexy or any of these agents these you know AI services, they will send off programmable agents to interrogate, you know, Macy's or Target or American Airlines or whatever it happens to be that you're speaking to the agent about the service about, and that.
The agent will have to interact with that site using an agentic interface.
Now the good news is that retailers will be able to expose their services to a broader audience who are now engaging with AI services.
Well the bad news is if they don't control that interface, they're going to lose control.
And so we provide the controlled interface to these agents to make sure that these agents that are coming to these sites don't run amok in the warehouse, you know, that kind of thing.
Yeah, so with the agent to commerce.
Comes opportunity but obviously some risks as you mentioned.
So how soon until this becomes a daily reality, especially here in the US?
Well, it's already happening.
It's already starting to happen, but you know fools rush in.
You know, the retailers that suddenly just open up the doors.
They're letting everybody into the warehouse, you know, unencumbered.
That's not a good idea.
We provide the infrastructure to support and control these agents when they come in to make sure that they go to the right shelves, they take the right products.
Know on behalf of the retailer who the customer is that's talking to Siri or OpenAI or so that's that's kind of the, you have to make sure that the retailer still retains control of the narrative with the customer, even if it's going via a third party.
That's the key thing.
And you know you might remember back in the dot com boom when Toys R Us gave all of their products up to Amazon because they thought that's the best way and then they went out of business.
That kind of risk is very prevalent today.
And finally, I do want to ask you about the role that crypto and wallet-based payments play in the space.
So what are some of the opportunities as well as some of the guardrails you think are necessary?
Well, first of all, you know, I believe that stablecoins and crypto are the future of money.
So obviously you have to start with that premise.
We've already transacted over a billion dollars of stablecoin transactions in the real world in Brazil where.
Consumers are using our wallet to take money out of an ATM to pay for a coffee at Starbucks and so on.
So we believe that this is just the beginning.
Obviously emerging markets like that which have you know volatile currencies, it's very well suited, but over time we think that we can introduce these wallets across North America and Europe and other markets, and that's going to be happening in 2026.
And finally we have less than 60 seconds here, but what are some trends?
You're watching as we head into 2026.
Look, I think that there's a transformation in the digital engagement platform, in talking to e-commerce and engaging in e-commerce.
That's really going to change over 2026.
We're leading that charge, but I think that you're going to see massive improvement in the way in which you can get to the products you want, be serviced properly by by customers and service providers.
OK, Danielle, thank you so much for joining me.
We will have to leave it there.
I appreciate your time.
Thank you so much.
