Core Concepts of AI Agents

AI agents operate based on perception, reasoning, and action. They typically include components such as sensors (to perceive data), a knowledge base or model (to understand the environment), decision-making algorithms, and actuators or interfaces (to enact decisions).

For instance, a chatbot AI agent perceives user inputs, processes intent using NLP models, and responds accordingly.

Advanced agents may incorporate reinforcement learning for adaptive behavior. Designing effective AI agents requires understanding state representation, decision policies, and feedback mechanisms.
