💡 About Agentic AI
What makes Smitty "agentic" and not just generative AI?
| Aspect | Agentic AI (Smitty) | Generative AI (ChatGPT) |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Takes autonomous actions to accomplish goals | Creates content from prompts |
| Behavior | Goal-directed, learns from outcomes | Stateless text generation |
| Learning | Continuous via memory bank feedback | No learning from outcomes |
