Lately, you can’t open a tech article without someone yammering about “AIArtificial Intelligence (AI) is basically when computers get smart—really smart. Imagine if your c... More agents.” It’s like the new kale—suddenly it’s everywhere, and everyone claims you need it.
The trouble is, most explanations are either so technical you’d need a NASA badge to understand them… or so watered down they leave you thinking, “Okay, but is this thing going to clean my house or overthrow the government?”
This short video does neither (phew!)—instead, it explains AI agents in three easy, actually-makes-sense levels you can follow without feeling like you’re stuck in a bad sci-fi movie:
- Level 1 – LLMs (Large Language Models):
This is where ChatGPTChatGPT is an advanced language model developed by OpenAI, designed to understand and generate human...

They’re great at generating text, answering questions, and even writing birthday poems for your cat. But they don’t know anything about your stuff—like your calendar—unless you hook them up to it. Which is probably a relief if your calendar contains things like “Doctor – possible fungus issue.” - Level 2 – AI Workflows:
Here, you give the AI a step-by-step “recipe” to follow every time—like “Check my calendar, then check the weather, then tell me if I need to wear my rain poncho to lunch.” It will do exactly what you say, which is great… unless you told it something wrong. Then it will happily follow your bad instructions straight into the digital ditch. - Level 3 – AI Agents:
Now we’re talking. Instead of you playing air-traffic controller, you just give the AI a goal—like “Make me a snappy Facebook post from today’s news”—and it decides the best way to do it. It thinks things through, grabs the right tools, and even tweaks its own work until it’s satisfied. Think of it like upgrading from a recipe-following sous chef to a full-on head chef… except this one doesn’t yell at you in French or set the kitchen on fire.
The video uses real-life examples, sprinkles in just enough tech lingo so you can impress your friends, and skips the overwhelming jargon. By the end, you’ll know exactly what people mean when they talk about “agents,” and you might even realize you’ve been using the baby version of one all along.
