Definition
An AI system that pursues a goal by deciding its own steps — calling tools, reading results, and acting — rather than answering a single prompt.
An AI agent wraps a model in a loop that plans, uses tools, observes outcomes, and continues until the task is done. In video work an agent might search an archive, run a detector, and compile findings, chaining many actions without step-by-step human prompts.
