Agentic AI is a new generation of artificial intelligence that operates autonomously, learns from past interactions, and makes decisions in real time. Data scientist Andy Vidan of Composable Analytics will examine the key differences between traditional automation and agentic AI and discuss how this technology enables smarter decision-making, process optimization, and systems that respond to dynamic business needs. This is a practical exploration of how autonomous AI can directly affect business performance and innovation.Register for this MIT Horizon webinar.This is a series of live events in partnership with MIT Startup Exchange.
