More FAQs in How did large language models lead to the development of agentic AI?
A plan alone is a description of possible steps. An agentic system executes permitted actions, observes results, and may adapt subsequent steps using those observations.
Without limits, an agent may repeat ineffective actions or consume unnecessary resources. Stopping conditions define when success, failure, or a request for help should end the loop.
