Overview

An AI agent is a system capable of independently carrying out tasks and reaching objectives by creating its own workflows and leveraging available tools, instead of simply reacting to single prompts. It operates using large language models (LLMs) as its core “brain,” allowing it to reason, plan, learn, and make informed decisions.

Components of AI Agents

An AI agent generally consists of several interconnected modules that enable its advanced functionality:

  • Planning Module: Decomposes complex objectives into smaller, actionable steps and organizes them in a logical order.
  • Memory Module: Maintains context by storing information across interactions, combining short-term memory (such as recent conversations) with long-term memory (past knowledge and experiences).
  • Tool Integration: Interfaces with external tools, APIs, and software to execute tasks like data retrieval, email automation, or database queries.
  • Learning and Reflection: Incorporates feedback loops to assess its outputs, learn from errors, and continuously enhance its performance.
