We live in a time when innovations and digital technology develop, including concepts such as: Generative Ai, AI Agent, and Agentic AI. Although it is all related to artificial intelligence techniques, each of which is used for different purposes, and provides varying levels of intelligence and independence as we will show it:
GENERATIVE AI: It is a system that produces a new content (text, image, sound, code …) based on inputs provided by the user.
This type does not have the ability to make independent decisions or work within long -term goals. For example: ChatGPT to write text and help in search. Dall-E or Midjourney to create pictures of a text description. ElevenLabs to convert texts into realistic sounds. Copilot and Gemini as aid to generate software code or content formulation. Its uses are concentrated in writing, design, translation and generating creative ideas, and it does not require him to think about the “next step”.
AI Agent: It is a system that interacts with his digital environment, and it performs almost independently specific tasks based on goals shown in its algorithms in advance. It uses different tools, but it remains within one task or a small group of tasks. for example:
Rewind AI to organize ideas, tasks and research within your device. Zapier AI to connect multiple applications and perform automatic tasks. Langchain Agents as agents interact with different data and models. Notion AI to help regulate content and carry out tasks automatically. Its uses are concentrated when needed for a task understanding tool, and are implemented on our behalf within a digital environment, such as organizing meetings or classifying messages.
Agentic AI: It is a system that thinks and is planned ”and is implemented based on general goals without the need for direct human intervention in each step. He uses several tools, analyzes data and learns from the results to improve his decisions constantly. For example:
Autogpt and AgentGPT to implement complex projects from start to end. MANUS as a multi -faceted system divides and carries out sub -agents. Operator from Openai to connect Chatgpt to different applications (such as Gmail and Slack) and perform actual tasks. Cognition Labs (Devin) is the first fully automated software engineer. Its uses are concentrated in its drawing of public goals, such as “solving the company’s marketing problems” and then begins to determine the tasks, implements them and then informs the results with its great abilities to adapt.
The essential difference between the three concepts:
Obstetric artificial intelligence: It produces instant content according to the user’s request, but it does not have a goal or plan.
Smart agent: one or more tasks are carried out using certain tools, but within a narrow context.
Self-artificial intelligence: determines the goals and divides the work, uses tools and self-memory, and works almost completely independently.
The choice of the appropriate type of artificial intelligence systems can make an actual difference in efficiency, effectiveness, quality of results and the ability to intelligently expand sustainable in institutional work.
