Beyond Agent Loops: How Collaborating AI Agents Are Taking Shape

At a glance

This is a DevDay 2026 talk from OpenAI's official channel. It covers the shift from simple agent loops, which repeat tasks step by step, to architectures where multiple agents work together.

What the video covers

1. 1

   It traces how agent design evolved from simple loops to collaborating agents

2. 2

   It looks at the design choices and model advances behind that shift

3. 3

   It also takes a closer look at what may come next

Why watch it?

It gives developers and planners who build or adopt AI agents a sense of where agent architecture is heading.
