What is agentic AI and how is it different from chatbots?
Agentic AI refers to autonomous systems that plan, reason, use tools, and execute multi-step workflows without human intervention. Unlike chatbots that respond to single prompts, agentic AI systems can break complex tasks into steps, call external APIs, learn from failures, and complete entire business processes end-to-end.
