AI Agents: What are they? 🕵🏻

Let’s be clear off the bat, an AI agent isn’t like Agent Smith from the Matrix. Well not yet at least…

An AI agent is essentially a system that can reason, plan, and interact with its environment to achieve a goal set by the user. It’s a goal-oriented machine.

An agent is made up of two main components. The first is the LLM (Large Language Model), which is the brain of the system. The LLM allows the agent to understand your natural language, handle the reasoning, and plan the actions it will take. The second component is the body—the tools the agent uses to interact with the world. These tools can be simple programs the agent calls upon, or more complex APIs that access real-time data.

Hello, World! My name is Matthew and this is my first foray into blogging. I am a husband, father, and all around nerd. Never really been one to talk about myself much but hoping this will make it easier to put myself out there for the world to see. I have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with emphasis in Game and Simulation Programming and still staying up-to-date on current trends as much as I can. Looking to get my foot in the door in the tech field still as I am very determined to get my career going into full swing.
