AI agents is a buzzworthy term that essentially refers to AI models and algorithms that can not only provide you with information but also take actions on your behalf. Companies like OpenAI and Anthropic have launched ‘agentic’ products that can assist you with tasks such as making bookings, filling in forms, and collaborating on coding projects.
In a recent LinkedIn Live event, our editor-in-chief Mat Honan, senior editor for AI Will Douglas Heaven, and senior AI reporter Grace Huckins discussed the exciting prospects of agents, their technological advancements, as well as their limitations and associated risks. Stay tuned for their insights!
If you’d like to deepen your understanding of AI agents, explore our articles:
– Are we ready to hand AI agents the keys? We’re beginning to grant AI agents real autonomy, and the implications of this are significant.
– Anthropic’s chief scientist on four ways agents will improve.
– Cyberattacks by AI agents are on the horizon. Agents may simplify and reduce costs for cybercriminals to hack systems at scale, highlighting the need for preparedness.
– When AIs bargain, a less advanced agent could cost you. In AI-to-AI price negotiations, weaker models often lose out—resulting in real financial consequences and raising concerns about digital inequality.
– There’s been significant interest in a new general AI agent from China called Manus. We conducted a test to see how it performs.
The must-reads: I’ve gathered today’s most engaging, important, and intriguing stories about technology for you.
1. The Trump administration is seeking to protect US tech firms abroad. It’s leveraging its global trade disputes to prevent other countries from imposing new taxes, regulations, and tariffs on American tech companies.
