It shows up in product updates, LinkedIn posts, and conversations at work, and yet for a lot of people, it still doesn't quite click. What actually is an agent? Is it the same as agentic AI? And does any of this actually matter for the way you work?  If you've been nodding along while quietly unsure, you're in good company. The AI industry has done a genuinely poor job of naming things, and it's created a lot of unnecessary confusion.  In this How I AI episode, Neo and I cut through the jargon and get into what agents actually are, how they differ from agentic AI, and where both individuals and teams can start using them right now.  What you’ll learn:  Why the terminology around AI tools is so confusing, and the key distinction between \"agents\" and \"agentic AI\" that actually matters in practice.  What an agent is versus what agentic AI is  How individuals can use agents for tasks they repeat regularly  How teams can use agents to standardise outputs like reports, reduce the burden of repetitive questions, and let people self-service answers using a knowledge agent   What the best starting question is to know if a problem can be solved by an agent  Connect with Neo Aplin on LinkedIn ( https://www.linkedin.com/in/neoaplin/ ) and via  inventium.ai , where he leads Inventium's AI training and upskilling work with organisations and teams.    My latest book The Energy Game is out on July 7, 2026.
