WAIC 2026 Opening Ceremony Main Forum | Yin Qi: When Agents Enter the Physical World

Yin Qi delivered a keynote titled "When Agents Enter the Physical World" at the WAIC 2026 opening ceremony main forum, proposing the formula "agent capability = model capability × agent operating system capability." The talk centered on three structural shifts in the agent era—new systems, new devices, and new networks—and noted that an Agentic OS and the A2A network will become key infrastructure.
