Agentic AI
AI systems designed to autonomously pursue goals, make decisions and take actions in complex environments with minimal human intervention.
In plain language
AI that can act independently; browsing the web, writing code, sending emails, making purchases; with minimal human guidance. Like giving an AI intern access to your computer and a to-do list.
Why this matters
Agentic AI systems raise significant governance challenges because they act autonomously. Your governance framework must define boundaries, oversight mechanisms and accountability structures for AI agents that take independent actions.
Relevance
GovernanceAgentic systems act on their own, so governance must define their boundaries, the human oversight around them and who is accountable when they act.
