AI agents represent the next evolution in GenAI applications, systems that don't just generate content but can autonomously plan, execute tasks, and interact with tools on your behalf. AI Agents for Everyone is designed for professionals who want to understand and harness the power of agentic AI without writing code. Participants explore how AI agents differ from traditional chatbots, learning to recognize when agent-based solutions are appropriate and how to work with them effectively. The course covers practical applications using Microsoft Copilot and other agent systems, demonstrating how these tools can transform workflows in productivity, research, communication, and decision-making. Through hands-on activities, participants learn to delegate tasks to AI agents, evaluate their performance, and integrate them strategically into daily work.
