Here’s a high-level roadmap for Progresively integrating AI into your system: 1. Understand the Existing System Document Requirements:…
What is an AI Agent
AI Agent is not something new or revolutionally – it is LLM combined with with sub-modules that execute the recommendations of it. The MCP (Model Context Protocol) and agent-style LLM workflows (like those in LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, AutoGen, etc.) can often be reduced to a planning → execution loop powered by an LLM, with tools…
