Is it just me, or does it feel like these terms get tossed around like everyone received the same AI dictionary...but somehow we did not?
Well, I've done the research and here’s the simple version:
💬 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗯𝗼𝘁: Responds to your questions.
🤝 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁: Helps you think, create, organize, and complete tasks with you.
⚙️ 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁: Works toward a goal, takes multiple steps, uses tools, and may act with less supervision.
The lines can get blurry because one AI tool may function as all three. What matters isn’t the fancy label.... it’s how much responsibility you’re giving it.
