Beyond Chatbots: AI Agents as the Next Computing Platform

AI agents represent a fundamental shift from responsive systems (chatbots) to autonomous decision-makers that actively complete complex tasks and workflows. Unlike chatbots requiring step-by-step instructions, agents can plan, access tools, and act independently toward defined goals, fundamentally reshaping how work gets done. This evolution positions AI agents as the next major computing platform, comparable to how the web transformed the internet era.
