What an Agent Actually Is
What an Agent Actually Is
A chatbot talks. An agent acts in a loop: it reads a goal, picks a tool, looks at the result, and decides the next step until the job is done or it asks you to take over.
That loop is the whole skill. Models get better. The job of the human is still: set the goal, give the tools, watch the trace, stop a bad run.
Learning outcomes
- Name the three parts of an agent: model, tools, loop
- Explain why a loop without a stop condition is dangerous
- Build a one-page explainer someone else could understand
This is lesson 1 of the free Build stage of the Agent Career Ladder. You will publish a real artifact by lesson 5.
