Why this was logged

Headline Gartner prediction that shaped enterprise agentic-AI planning through 2026; repeatedly cited in analyst roundups, vendor pitches, and CIO decks.

First analyst-claim entry under the archive methodology (v0.2, 19 Apr 2026).

Holding status at logging time reflects that no major counter-evidence has surfaced against the broad prediction through Q1 2026. Review cadence 180 days because long-range analyst predictions age on a slower clock than specific deployment claims. First scheduled review: ~22 October 2026.
