Lately, I’ve been getting a lot of questions around the difference between 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗔𝗜, 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀, and 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜.

Here’s how I usually explain it — without the jargon.

𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗔𝗜

This is what most people think of when they hear “AI.” It can write blog posts, generate images, help you code, and more.

It’s like a super-smart assistant — but only when you ask. 

No initiative. 

No memory. 

No goals.

Tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and GitHub Copilot fall into this bucket.

𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀

Now we’re talking action. An AI Agent doesn’t just answer questions — it 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀.

It can:

• Plan tasks

• Use tools

• Interact with APIs

• Loop through steps until the job is done

Think of it like a junior teammate that can handle a process from start to finish — with minimal handholding.

𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗔𝗜

This is where things get interesting.

Agentic AI is not just about completing a single task. It’s about having 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀, 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘆, and the ability to 𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁.

It’s the difference between:

"Write me a summary" vs. "Go read 50 research papers, summarize the key trends, update my Notion, and ping me if there’s anything game-changing."

Agentic AI behaves more like a 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺 than a chatbot. It can collaborate, improve over time, and even work alongside other agents.

Personally, I think we’re just scratching the surface of what agentic systems can do. We’re moving from building apps to 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄𝘀.

And that’s a massive shift.

Curious to hear from others building in this space — what tools or frameworks are you experimenting with? LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI ?
