Accepted Answer

AI agents are software systems that can pursue a goal on their own — planning steps, using tools, calling other systems, and completing work end to end without a person directing each action.

Question 8

How are AI agents different from ordinary software?

Ordinary software waits for instructions and executes fixed rules. An agent takes an objective, decides its own sequence of actions, adapts when conditions change, and can operate continuously without supervision — which is what allows it to absorb a job rather than assist with a task.
