It's time to move on from this outdated understanding of what AI models do. Agentic AI is not just fancy autocomplete. The models can pull data, write code to analyze it, verify claims, create audit trails, etc. It's not error-proof and vigilance is essential, but it's not the ChatGPT of 2024-2025.
