AI Agents

AI Agents, also referred to as Agentic Applications or Agents, represent a significant leap in AI Development by enabling autonomous decision-making, task execution, and exploration.

In the image below is a selection of really impactful studies…

These agents are capable of complex operations such as web exploration and system navigation, leveraging multi-modal models that combine text, speech, and visual data for a comprehensive understanding of their environment. In the context of agentic exploration, AI agents can independently navigate digital environments, such as browser-based interfaces or mobile operating systems, to fulfill user-defined objectives.

As AI Agents evolve, they bridge the gap between purely reactive tools and proactive, adaptive systems that can learn, explore, and improve autonomously.
