Learn: Agent Engineering
As if AI and prompt-engineering aren’t enough already… let’s look ahead just a bit.
Next up are AI AGENTS.
AI AGENTS are digital assistants that independently perform complex tasks on your behalf. Prompt them once and let them go to work 24 7 . Thus AGENT ENGINEERING is an emergent thing.
It’s kind of like creating a rule in Outlook – you set it and forget it. It does its thing. Only in this case it might be job hunting, researching, data analyzing… whatever.
The latest versions can even surf the web on your behalf – move the mouse, type, click, submit.
Thus! AGENT ENGINEERING is a logical evolution of PROMPT ENGINEERING – only instead of asking for one thing at a time – you’re telling the AI to keep working dynamically, independently, on your behalf.
In perpetuity.
Through an educational lens, the shift from passive AI use to active creation of personalized assistants aligns with Dewey’s emphasis on experiential learning – students become “agent engineers,” actively constructing and refining their digital assistants through hands-on experimentation. This “learning-by-engineering” approach could revolutionize how we develop technological literacy.
Doncha think!?
There are some obvious downsides too. We’ll talk about those next time.
