Exploring Agentic AI

The post introduces agentic AI as software that can act on a user’s behalf—opening apps, organizing files, building code—once given permission. The author details hands‑on experiments with Claude Code, Claude Co‑Work, and ChatGPT Codex, showing how the tools renamed 1,200 research PDFs, created folder structures, and even generated simple desktop apps. He highlights practical workflows such as weekly download‑folder cleanup and automated video chunking, while noting the need for caution due to unsupervised actions. Finally, he reflects on the tension between agentic AI’s friction‑reducing power and its uncertain role in teaching and learning.
