The next AI wave — agents — should come with warning labels – Computerworld

“Until recently, AI research has focused on learning models that are good at one task,” Lee said, “but the work often consists of many interdependent tasks. With agent-based AI, humans no longer provide individual tasks to the AI, but rather provide the AI ​​with jobs. The intelligent AI will then develop a strategy and determine the set of tasks needed to get the job done.”

According to Capgemini82% of organizations plan to implement artificial intelligence agents within the next three years, primarily for tasks such as email generation, coding and data analysis. Likewise, Deloitte predicts that businesses using artificial intelligence agents this year will increase their use of this technology by 50% over the next two years.

“Such systems exhibit characteristics traditionally associated exclusively with human operators, including decision making, planning, collaboration, and adaptation of execution methods based on input data, predetermined goals, and environmental considerations,” Capgemini explained.
