AI agents leverage a combination of technologies to perform tasks autonomously and intelligently. Machine learning, particularly deep learning, is at the core, enabling agents to recognize patterns, make decisions, and adapt to new data. Natural language processing (NLP) allows agents to understand and generate human language, which is essential for chatbots, virtual assistants, and customer service applications. Reinforcement learning is used for training agents in dynamic environments, such as robotics and gaming. Computer vision enables agents to process visual data for tasks like object recognition and navigation. Technologies like transformers, used in models such as GPT and BERT, have revolutionized NLP and multimodal AI capabilities. These technologies are often integrated with APIs, cloud computing, and edge devices to create scalable and efficient AI agents for various domains, including healthcare, finance, and customer support.
