Bernard Marr in Forbes:
What makes agentic AI truly revolutionary is its architecture. While generative AI excels at processing and producing content based on patterns in its training data, agentic systems incorporate sophisticated planning modules, memory systems, and decision-making frameworks that allow them to maintain context and pursue objectives over time. They can break down complex tasks into manageable steps, prioritize actions, and even recognize when their current approach isn’t working and needs adjustment.
We’re beginning to see the first signs of convergence between generative and agentic capabilities in mainstream AI tools. OpenAI’s recent introduction of scheduled tasks in ChatGPT represents an early step in this direction. This feature allows the AI to operate semi-autonomously, performing scheduled actions and maintaining ongoing responsibilities without constant user prompting. While still in its early stages, it points to a future where AI systems combine the creative and analytical capabilities of generative AI with the autonomous decision-making of agentic AI.
