They analyse data, recognise patterns and adapt their behaviour in order to achieve specified goals as effectively as possible.
Generative AI
Generative AI is a special area of AI that generates new content from existing data, such as text, images, videos, music or program code. These systems learn structures and styles from training data and can generate suggestions, drafts or answers on this basis.
AI agent
Unlike a chatbot, which requires continuous interaction to achieve a result, AI agents are systems that can execute processes independently: they plan steps, use the appropriate digital tools in a targeted manner, adapt their further actions to the results achieved – all without continuous human intervention.
Robots
Robots are physical machines that act in the real world, move around and interact with objects or people, such as industrial robots on an assembly line or service robots in logistics. They can be programmed to be purely rigid or can also use AI to recognise their environment and react more flexibly. Generative AI, on the other hand, remains purely software and generates digital content instead of physical movements.
