Agents

AI agents are software programs designed to autonomously perform tasks, make decisions, and interact with systems or users on behalf of a business or individual. They are increasingly being integrated into enterprise software, consumer devices, and digital contracts to automate processes and provide intelligent services.

Why it’s in the news: AI agents are in the news due to their expanding role in enterprise technology, consumer products, and security, raising both opportunities and concerns about their implementation and oversight.
