The Dawn of Agentive Technology
summary
Argues a distinct category: narrow artificial intelligence acting as an agent that runs over time, monitors data streams, follows rules and exceptions, and learns toward goals. Shows working examples: the Narrative camera that takes a picture every ~15 seconds and uploads and picks representative frames (mostly good), eBay watchlists that bid on a user’s behalf, Roomba and Nest agents, and Schwab’s intelligent portfolio that rebalances portfolios daily. Lays out real setup, monitoring, interruption and graceful-degradation problems to solve.
