They are considered the next step in the evolution of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and gradually begin to be deployed. AI agents are doomed to upset the way in which we interact with the machines and above all, greatly facilitate our daily life by performing forbidden tasks for us. All thanks to a simple prompt or a voice command.
Indeed, these programs are like assistants or virtual employees, capable of carrying out several consecutive tasks independently to achieve a specific objective. “” In the future, AI agents will become the main means of interaction with computers. They will be able to understand our needs and preferences, and to help us in a proactive manner to accomplish tasks and make decisions “Conspects Satya Nadella, Microsoft CEO.
And if for the time being, this technology is not yet completely democratized, it comes to the tip of its nose. Openai and Anthropic have, for example, already launched their first agents. Discover the tasks that these devices, directly integrated into our smartphones, applications and computers, will soon be able to perform in our name.
Search for specific information
This is undoubtedly one of the most famous generative AI capacities, and which has spread most easily: the possibility of browsing different sources in the blink of an eye to find precise information there. It is this aptitude that completely transforms search engines as we know them.
As AI features are introduced in platforms, the search for information becomes much simpler. Soon, it will simply be enough to ask your device to search, for example, ” A restaurant specializing in vegetarian food and open after 9 p.m. To ensure that AI offers a list of establishments corresponding to these criteria. This is worth, of course, for a whole bunch of information.
Book a restaurant or experience
And this is where IA’s agent becomes really interesting. You can even ask him to book a table in the chosen restaurant, provided that the reservation can be done online. No need to look for schedules or chain clicks, artificial intelligence will take care of everything. This will be valid for a lot of experiences, such as buying places for a concert or an amusement park.
Manage schedules and meetings
This feature will be particularly useful for those whose timetable is busy. AI agents will be able to take care of your calendars with a master’s hand, taking care of planning meetings, set reminders and even proactively suggesting optimal schedules according to your preferences and commitments. They will also be able to automatically reprogram the appointments according to your priorities.
Automate online commerce
E-commerce giants are on the war foot. Because AI agents could simply revolutionize the user experience on their platforms, sometimes criticized for their lack of practicality. They will be able to learn your preferences and search for offers accordingly. Likewise, they will compare prices, apply discount vouchers if available, and finalize the purchasing process. A considerable time saving. Of course, purchases will only be made with the approval of the user.
Customize entertainment
It happened to us all: search for long minutes a film or a series to watch on a streaming platform, without finding the work that makes us really want. The AI agent could allow us to save precious time by creating personalized reading lists, by recommending films and series according to the viewing history and by adapting proposals in real time. They will even be able to develop personalized news threads according to our interests.
Check your connected devices
This type of feature is already starting to be deployed in certain devices and services. It would be completely unified thanks to AI agents: thermostat adjustment, light brightness, doors locking, etc. The technology will control your devices according to your voice commands or your predefined preferences. She will also be able to learn your habits and automate the tasks accordingly.
Assistance and advice in real time
Making a recipe, assembling a piece of furniture, repairing an object … These different daily tasks are already much easier to perform thanks to the Internet, with, among other things, the many dedicated sites or the tutorials on YouTube. But AI agents will further accelerate the process. They will provide step -by -step instructions, visual aids and will even put you in contact with experts if necessary. The beginnings of these capacities are already observable with chatbots like Chatgpt, Gemini or Claude.
Monitor your health
Integrated into applications dedicated to health or sport, AI agents will be able to follow your fitness goals, remember to take your medication or suggest meals according to your dietetic needs.
Manage your finances
You are not an ace of financial management? AI agents may well be of great help! The technology will keep an eye on your expenses, will alert you in the event of unusual transactions, and will even suggest budgetary optimizations or advice to avoid unnecessary expenses. And that’s not all, agents will be able to categorize transactions automatically, create personalized budgets based on expenditure habits and adjust them according to income.
Vacation
Preparing a trip can become a real headache, forcing us to juggle between the different sites to compare offers, find flights, hotels and activities. AI agents should completely change the situation. They will reserve flights or trains, but also the hotel according to preferences and budget. They will provide real -time travel updates, will suggest routes and manage last -minute changes or cancellations.
