What are AI agents?

AI agents are autonomous systems capable of performing tasks and making decisions on behalf of humans, often without needing constant human oversight. AI agents can leverage long-term memory, learn from repeated interactions, and handle a range of tasks autonomously, moving beyond chatbots or narrowly defined algorithms. In the coming years, the narrative will shift from text-based interaction models to agents capable of true autonomy, fundamentally altering how industries like gaming, e-commerce, and enterprise software function.

Why is this so compelling?

AI Agents represent a new form of labor—one that is vastly more productive in the domains they automate compared to humans. In gaming, for example, AI Agents can autonomously fill multiplayer lobbies, ensuring players always have more engaging and dynamic gaming experiences. This unlocks immense value by not only streamlining operations but also by creating opportunities for companies and individuals to monetize these agents. The productivity gains from automating workflows with AI Agents are far-reaching, and the potential for economic value creation is massive.
