AI Agents
AI agents are LLM-powered systems that don't just answer — they plan steps, call tools and drive a task to completion: writing code, searching the web, booking, analyzing. 2026 became the year of agents, from coding agents to autonomous researchers. This page gathers all our coverage of agentic AI: launches, protocols (MCP, A2A), reliability and real-world use.
