Understanding AI Agents
AI agents represent a significant evolution in technology, where traditional chatbots and large language models (LLMs) transition into more autonomous entities capable of executing tasks independently. Unlike simple chat interactions, agents leverage features like reasoning and memory to perform complex tasks without ongoing human intervention. This agency allows them to sift through options, provide rationale, and essentially navigate problems on their own. A key component of an effective agent includes tools that enable interaction with various systems and a memory component that retains information necessary for task completion.
