Agentic AI
AI systems that autonomously pursue goals and execute multi-step task chains.
Definition
Agentic AI refers to AI systems that do not merely react to instructions but autonomously pursue goals, make decisions, and execute multi-step task chains. They combine a language model with tools, memory, and planning logic. Agentic AI is the evolution of classic chat assistants toward systems that independently research, act, and automate processes.
