AI agent

An AI agent is a software system that uses information, instructions and permitted tools to work towards a defined objective. Its practical usefulness depends on the task boundaries, quality of context and actions it can genuinely perform. An agent's suggestion is not proof that a task has been executed, and access to one tool does not imply access to every system.

Why it matters for your business

A business should specify the decisions the agent may make, the evidence it must return and when it must hand work to a person. That makes the result reviewable.

A business example

An enquiry agent drafts a callback task from a conversation and passes uncertain details to a team member instead of inventing an answer.

Illustrative example.

Your next step

Define one task, its permitted actions and the point at which human review is required.
