"Introduction to Autonomous Agents"

"Introduction to Autonomous Agents" explores computer programs or systems capable of performing tasks independently, without human intervention. These agents perceive their environment, make decisions based on their observations, and act to achieve specific goals. Examples include robots navigating a space, virtual assistants managing schedules, or software filtering emails. Understanding these agents involves studying their design, how they learn and adapt, and how they interact with humans and other systems. This field combines elements of artificial intelligence, robotics, and software engineering, aiming to create systems that can operate effectively in complex, dynamic environments.
