When you tell GPT to complete a task, it completes it.
But what if you don't want to specify every task for GPT? What if you want GPT to think for itself?
Imagine creating an AI that you can give a goal, even a vague one like "create the best AI product in the world." The AI would create a to-do list, complete tasks, add new tasks as it progresses, and continue until it reaches the goal.
This is what an Agent does.
