    RECEIPT #MIKE-S

    JAN 06, 2026

    Partially right.

    PREDICTION BY

    Mike Shields
    Agentic commerce won’t happen

    FOLLOW-UP

    While fully autonomous AI buying at scale is still nascent, the emergence of buyer-side AI and AEO (AI Engine Optimization) by 2025-2026 indicates that 'agentic commerce' is beginning to happen in some form, partially contradicting Shields’ strong negative prediction.

    RECEIPT #ARI-PA

    JAN 01, 2024

    Called it.

    PREDICTION BY

    Ari Paparo
    “Agentic Commerce Is (Still) a Collective Hallucination”

    FOLLOW-UP

    As of mid-2026, there is no evidence that fully autonomous “agents” have become the primary modality for consumer shopping at scale. Industry coverage continues to treat agentic commerce as an emerging or experimental area, not a mainstream reality.
