AI Model
An AI Model is a mathematical algorithm trained on a dataset to perform specific tasks like classification, prediction, or text generation. It represents the saved states of a neural network (the weights and biases) after training, which can be deployed to run inference on new, unseen data.
Agentic AI
Agentic AI refers to artificial intelligence systems designed to act autonomously, make decisions, plan workflows, and execute tasks without constant human intervention. Unlike traditional models that only respond to queries, agentic systems use an agentic loop to perceive environments, reason over goals, use tools, and iterate to achieve outcomes.
