What Is Agentic AI?
Agentic AI autonomously plans, decides, and acts to achieve goals, differing from traditional AI by focusing on goal-oriented behavior.
Stargo's Stardox leverages agentic AI to transform unstructured data into actionable insights, enhancing supply chain efficiency.
Executive Summary
Agentic AI refers to intelligent platforms that can autonomously plan, decide, and act to achieve goals with minimal human intervention. Unlike traditional AI, which focuses on pattern recognition, or generative AI, which creates content, agentic AI operates with goal-oriented behavior. It decomposes complex goals into sub-tasks, orders them logically, and revises plans as conditions change. This AI can choose actions and decide when to act independently, with partial or full human oversight. It orchestrates three layers: Large Language Models for reasoning and planning, machine learning algorithms for prediction and optimization, and autonomous agents for control and execution.
