One of the most disruptive applications of generative AI is likely to be AI agents. Ever since previews of tools like: AutoGPT, BabyAGI, and GodMode were announced last year... the promise of AI agents has been constantly discussed. But thus far, there hasn’t been any real winners.

Last week, over 300 AI Founders and Investors assembled in SF to discuss and share innovations in autonomous AI agents. The event featured AI startups that demonstrated their applications live and allowed attendees to interact with them.

While I am personally excited and already testing AI agents in my own business, I feel the gap towards getting adoption and breakthrough will be similar to generative AI.

Now, before I share my thoughts, let me define AI Agents and credit Jeremiah Owyang’s blog post:

What are AI agents?
AI agents are software programs designed to autonomously perform tasks, learning from interactions and adapting to accomplish a broad array of objectives with minimal human intervention. These agents play a crucial role in steering us towards more automated and intelligent systems, serving as the building blocks for the future of artificial general intelligence. They are distinct from copilots which are often collaborating with humans within an app.

Here is a list of 13 AI Agents that you should be paying attention to…(and the two I’m testing)
