AI agent

An AI agent is a software entity that uses artificial intelligence techniques to perceive its environment, process information, and take actions-autonomously or semi-autonomously-to achieve specific goals. It typically involves components for sensing (input), reasoning or decision-making, and acting (output), and may learn or adapt its behavior over time based on experience or data.
