Chapter 1: Intro to AI Agents

Tracing the shift from static LLMs that process prompt-response patterns to active, autonomous agent systems. It outlines the core characteristics of agents: perception, decision-making, planning, and execution.

Key Chapter Insights:

Distinguishing simple LLM applications from fully autonomous agentic systems.
Understanding the perception-action loop in business operations.
Identifying initial high-value use cases for agentic deployment.

"An agent does not just chat; it executes, coordinates, and measures outcomes."
