Conclusion and Future Outlook
This final chapter brings together everything we’ve learned in this book about AI-powered systems that can act on their own (agentic systems). We will start by going over the main ideas we’ve covered, making sure you have a solid understanding of how these systems work. We will then look at what’s new and exciting in this field, exploring fresh ideas and research that could change how we think about and use these technologies.
We will also talk about artificial general intelligence (AGI) – the idea of creating AI that can think and learn like humans across many different tasks. While AGI remains a concept with no practical implementation yet, current AI systems are narrow AI, meaning they excel at specific tasks but lack general reasoning abilities. Despite significant advancements in deep learning and large language models, true AGI requires breakthroughs in reasoning, adaptability, and self-learning beyond predefined tasks...
