Vertical AI Pushes Infrastructure Beyond One-size-fits-all
While infrastructure requirements may be commonly shared in enterprise IT, the path for AI deployment can vary significantly depending on the organization.
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.
Autonomous Agent
An Autonomous Agent is an AI system designed to operate independently to achieve specific, high-level objectives. It constructs its own sub-tasks, plans sequences of actions, invokes external tools, inspects intermediate results, and corrects mistakes without user guidance.
Chatbot
A Chatbot is a software application designed to simulate human-like conversations with users, either through text dialogues or voice interfaces, historically powered by rule-based patterns and now by Large Language Models.
