The evolution of autonomous agents can be categorized into three stages: handcrafted agents involve human-generated task lists and specific API calls, while specialized agents dynamically generate tasks within a set of skills like coding or data retrieval. The ultimate form is the generalized autonomous agent, capable of performing a wide range of tasks autonomously. Handcrafted agents are currently prevalent, with examples like Wakila, while specialized agents show promise but have not yet demonstrated significant reliability and value creation to charge substantial amounts.
