This is a practical, non-technical guide for business leaders, entrepreneurs, and curious minds.

Through illuminating case studies and hands-on experiments, the authors reveal a step-by-step method for identifying high-value agentic opportunities and building impactful agents in your business, work, and personal life.

Informative and practical. Real life cases

I liked that you feel embarking in AI agents systems is reachable as the real life examples are inspiring

Great foundation with many insights

This book lays the foundation for how to understand AI Agents and what to look for when starting to use them. The authors provide many insights, and teach with examples that they personally experienced.

This book is one I am going to read over and over again to ensure I collect a great foundation, and understand the common pitfalls to avoid.

Highly informative, thorough with actionables

Unlike many AI books filled with histories and common sense, this book presents where AI is heading to and at the same time empowers listeners with an actually actionable guideline. Narrator is great; got the passion and life unlike many AI narrators.

Ai is a complex discussion

I selected this book because of the gave a different perspective. Not only didn’t make it palatable regardless of your knowledge. It also provided examples of how we can better utilize and leverage AI identity, AI and understand why we must embrace this new technology. Clearly they’re not the only book in publication, but this book does provide an in-depth look with an open mind. Well worth the read.

Agent specific topics were good

Last chapters weren’t that great but early chapters were good. Later chapters started to go into non agent related topics.
