Vom Assistent zum aktiven KI-Agenten
Die Ära der passiven KI-Assistenten neigt sich dem Ende zu. Microsoft präsentiert mit seinen KI-Agenten eine Technologie, die über klassische Chatbot-Funktionen hinausgeht und in komplexe Geschäftsprozesse eingebunden werden kann. Der Unterschied zwischen herkömmlichen Copilot-Funktionen und den neuen KI-Agenten ist fundamental. Während Microsoft-365-Copilot bislang als intelligenter Assistent fungierte, der Texte verfasst oder Daten analysiert, übernehmen Agenten…
