AI agent
An AI agent is a worker that can use tools. An operating system is what assigns the work, keeps the memory, and puts a human on the gate. A company that searches for AI agents usually needs the system, not another bot that forgets the last decision.
AI agent sits in the Agents & tools part of the Agentik {OS} glossary, which defines the words used to build and run AI agent systems.
