The rise of AI agents marks a new era in generative technology, combining autonomy and teamwork to tackle complex tasks, but with risks and ethical considerations

We are entering the third phase of generative AI. First came the chatbots, followed by the assistants. Now we are beginning to see agents: systems that aspire to greater autonomy and can work in “teams” or use tools to accomplish complex tasks.. This combines two pre-existing products into a single more powerful system which, according to the developer, “thinks and acts”.
These new systems represent a step up from earlier AI tools. Knowing how they work and what they can do — as well as their drawbacks and risks — is rapidly becoming essential.. These are systems built on top of the same large language models that power generative AI chatbots, only now designed to carry out tasks with human instruction and supervision.
Agents are another step up. They are intended to pursue goals with varying degrees of autonomy, supported by more advanced capabilities such as since late last year. A big moment came last October, when Anthropic gave its Claude chatbot the ability to in much the same way a human does. This system could search multiple data sources, find relevant information and submit online forms.Not all agents are made for general-purpose activity. Some are specialised for particular areas.
