If you have been scrolling through the internet or reading articles, you must have come across terms like “AI AGENT,” “AutoGPT,” and “autonomous AI.” AI Agents are quickly becoming the most popular and hottest topic around the globe, and believe me, they will be the biggest shift after ChatGPT shocked the world in 2022.
What is an AI Agent ?
An AI agent is like a digital worker that can think, decide, and act on your behalf. Unlike traditional apps that wait for you to press buttons, agents can take the initiative. They track their surrounding, makes decisions, and execute them without constant hand-holding/checking.
Imagine telling your AI, “Research the best mobile phone under $500, compare reviews, and create a summary.” Other than googling and making a spreadsheet, an AI Agent will just handle it that’s the difference between a standard chatbot and an AI Agent.
