The Difference Between Apps and AI Agents
📱 Apps
Definition
: Software applications with user interfaces that perform specific tasks.
User-Driven
: They rely on the user to click, swipe, and input commands.
Examples
: Instagram (mobile app), Microsoft Excel (desktop app), Google Docs (web app).
Purpose
: Deliver a tool or service through structured features and screens.
🤖 AI Agents
Definition
: Software programs that use artificial intelligence to act autonomously or semi-autonomously on behalf of a user.
Goal-Oriented
: They’re built to
understand intent
, make decisions, and take actions with little to no user input.
Examples
: ChatGPT, a customer service bot that answers questions; a scheduling agent that books meetings.
Purpose
: Solve problems or complete tasks intelligently and proactively.
