AI Agent
An AI Agent is an autonomous entity that perceives its environment through sensors (or inputs) and acts upon that environment using actuators (or tools) to achieve specific goals. An agent relies on a reasoning brain (typically an LLM) to plan and execute multi-step processes.
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.
