🤔 What does it mean for an AI model to be "agentic"?

An agentic AI model is one that can act independently to achieve a goal. Instead of just answering questions, it can perceive its environment, make decisions, plan a series of actions, and execute them without constant human supervision. Think of it as an AI that can not only tell you how to do something but can also try to do it itself.


"The true test of AI is not how it performs, but how responsibly it is contained and controlled."
