Update on Generalist AI Agent Development
Sundae Bar Plc has announced that its generalist commercial AI agent is now in live development with real developer participation, transitioning from internal testing to real-world training via the Bittensor network. This development aims to create a single digital worker capable of executing end-to-end business workflows, addressing limitations of current disconnected enterprise AI tools. The company anticipates this phase will accelerate capability development and support the delivery of a production-grade agent for enterprise deployment, aligning with industry research forecasting significant enterprise AI agent adoption by 2026.

[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n29 January 2026\n\nSundae Bar Plc (\"sundae_bar\" or the \"Company\")\nUpdate on Generalist AI Agent Development\nFurther to the announcement published on 17 December 2025, Sundae Bar Plc (AIM: SBAR) announces that its generalist commercial AI agent is now in live development with real developer participation, marking the transition from internal testing to real-world training.\nThis development is enabled through the Bittensor network, which allows global developers to contribute improvements through open, performance-based competition.\nThe generalist commercial AI agent is being developed as a single digital worker designed to execute real business workflows end-to-end, rather than narrow, task-specific tools. The Company believes this approach addresses a key limitation in current enterprise AI adoption, where multiple disconnected tools fail to operate reliably across systems and workflows.\nJill Kenney, CEO of sundae_bar, commented: \"AI agents are moving from experimentation into real enterprise adoption, and we have been building the generalist AI agent deliberately for that moment. By training a single generalist agent through open competition on the Bittensor network and deploying it through the sundae_bar platform, we are focused on delivering a digital worker that can execute real workflows rather than a collection of disconnected tools. Opening the system to developer contributions is an important step in making that capability production-ready.\"\nSN121 enables Bittensor's global network of developers to compete to improve the same agent against structured, real-world business challenges. Performance will be evaluated using the Company's Agent Evaluation Test Suite (\"AETS\"), which is designed to test reliability, constraint handling and multi-step execution under production-like conditions. Evaluation outputs are intended to be observable and auditable, producing both quantitative scores and qualitative rationales that support rapid iteration and validated improvement.\nThe Company expects this next phase to materially accelerate capability development and support the delivery of a production-grade generalist AI agent suitable for enterprise deployment. Subject to ongoing performance validation, the strongest-performing version of the agent is expected to be deployed through the sundae_bar platform.\nIn...
