What Is Agentic AI? Like other forms of artificial intelligence, agentic AI is only as accurate as the data that fuels it. It relies on “a digital ecosystem of large language models (LLMs), machine learning (ML), and natural language processing (NLP) to perform autonomous tasks on behalf of the user or another system,” according to IBM. Agentic AI is the term used to describe the overall concept.
