ABOUT THIS BOOK
Agentic AI refers to autonomous systems driven by large language models (LLMs) that act as intelligent agents, capable of perceiving environments, setting goals, creating multi-step plans, making decisions, and executing complex, multi-step workflows with minimal human oversight. Unlike passive chatbots and traditional AI tools that simply answer prompts, agentic AI actively reasons, uses digital tools, and adapts processes across various applications. It is rapidly emerging as the next major paradigm in automation, AI engineering, and enterprise transformation.
