Definition
What is Agentic AI? Agentic AI is an advanced Generative-AI technology ideal for business solutions. It has the following characteristics:
1) AUTONOMOUS: Autonomous processing of actions, decisions, defined objectives, and custom processes.
2) AGENT DESIGN: Through its agent design it is superior to chat prompts.
3) SCALE: Allows to build large-scale solutions with multi-agent networks.
4) LATERAL: Creation of non-linear processes like innovation or other complex scenarios.
The Prompt to Agent Transformation
An agent is not just a better prompt. Interestingly enough, Agents still use ‘prompts’ to talk to the Large Language Model. The LLMs represent a key component of a Generative AI System. So all the above-mentioned functionalities PLUS prompting results are handled within an agent. This transformation is also the ignition of modern AI-Times and even the start of the next Intellectual Revolution.
ONLY NOW you can create end-to-end business solutions, complex problem-solving solutions, or other solutions that go far deeper than any conventional software could go. Only now, you can begin replacing existing conventional software with complete AI Solutions to make quantum leaps in output quality and productivity. And only now we can start augmenting our own intelligence with artificial intelligence.
What’s inside an Agent?
One of two things:
A) Conventional software code, often written in Python but with access to a Large Language Model. This is currently the most used model.
B) Multi-Functional-Prompts, written in natural language, but with access to conventional programs, other models, and APIs whenever needed. This Prompt-over-Code model is betting in the future of ever more intelligence in the model and faster access to future Large Action Models.
The decision is not easy. Developers know their code and see a huge advantage in code-based software, including flexibility, and output precision. Native AI developers see the advantage of process intelligence, non-linear process development, even better LLM leverage, and many others. This may be a religious battle between two ways of thinking. Only time will tell.
Where can I learn more about it?
Managers and Executives
Twice a year we offer Agentic-AI management programs to acquire the foundational knowledge of modern AI, the future of Agents, and entire business solutions. This program is for non-IT managers, to understand the cause and effect of Agentuc-AI solutions in corporations over the next 2 to 5 years.
AI Solution Implementer and Developer
We are conducting quarterly online Agentic AI Bootcamps. You find them on the BlueCallom Website. Those Boot Camps are two-day instructor-based workshops with hands-on exercises so you learn the theory and the practical results in one program.
