When Microsoft reported killer fourth-quarter earnings for its fiscal 2026 year (which ended June 30), it tucked in an interesting little tidbit about how its investments in the two biggest, and competing, AI labs are doing.

On the company’s second-quarter earnings call Wednesday, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Meta sees a “large enterprise opportunity” spanning AI agents, APIs, compute, and internal software.

Microsoft is working on an AI "super app" that combines Copilot's chat, coding, and agentic capabilities. During an earnings call on Wednesday, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said the app will span "both consumer and commercial experiences" when it launches this year. "Copilot is evolving rapidly from chat to Cowork to Autopilots," Nadella said. "This quarter, […]

The company's tech chief said a fix for the error will be arriving soon.

HAWK withstood years of testing that had yet to uncover a fatal weakness found through Mythos.

Meta is all-in on AI, and sometime soon, the company is going to make a big push into personal AI agents that can do things on your behalf. On Wednesday's Q2 2026 earnings call, CEO Mark Zuckerberg previewed a high-level vision of how the company is thinking about personal agents and what it will do […]

In my previous article , I built a fully local RAG assistant Ollama, ChromaDB, LangChain, all running in Docker. It answered technical support questions by searching through documentation and citing sources. It worked. But after using it for a while, I noticed something uncomfortable: it treated every question the same way . Ask it "how to close monthly payroll?" it searches the docs. Fine. Ask it "the server crashes at startup" it also searches the docs. Less fine. Ask it something completely outside the documentation it searches the docs. Useless. A real support technician doesn't do that. They first assess the situation, then decide what to do: look it up, run a diagnosis, or escalate to a human. My RAG had no such judgment. That's what this article is about how I evolved the system into an Agentic AI architecture using LangGraph, where the assistant first decides which strategy to use , then acts accordingly. The Core Limitation of Classic RAG Classic RAG is a linear pipeline. Every query follows the exact same path: Question → Embed → Retrieve → Prompt → LLM → Answer No branching. No decision-making. No memory between steps. This works perfectly for procedural questions where the answer lives in the docs. But technical support involves at least three distinct scenarios: Scenario Example Best strategy Procedural question "How do I create an account?" Search documentation Known error code "ERR-COMP-001 appears" Lookup error database Unknown incident "Server crashes, no idea why" Diagnose + escalate if needed A single RAG pipeline handles the first case well and the other two poorly. The solution is to add a layer of reasoning before retrieval. What Agentic AI Adds The shift from RAG to Agentic AI comes down to one thing: the system plans before it acts . Instead of one fixed pipeline, you have: Question ↓ Classifier (what kind of question is this?) ↓ ├── Procedural → RAG Agent (search docs) ├── Error code → Diagnostic Agent (lookup + LLM analysis) └── Complex → D
