Build Smarter AI Systems: 3 Agent Patterns You Can Implement Today

In this video, we break down the three types of Agentic AI patterns—Chat Agents, Workflow Agents, and Autonomous Agents—and show you how to implement each one. You’ll learn: 🔹 What an AI Agent is and how it differs from a chatbot 🔹 How reasoning (LLMs) and tools work together in agentic systems 🔹 When to use each agent pattern for real-world problems 🔹 Practical code examples for each pattern: from simple chat assistants to multi-step workflows and autonomous orchestrators. Whether you’re a developer, solution architect, or AI strategist, this video gives you a clear mental model for designing and implementing agentic systems that think, plan, and act. 💡 Chapters: 00:00 - What Is an AI Agent? 01:11 - Agentic Patterns 02:30 – Chat Agents 03:49 – Workflow Agents 06:05 – Autonomous Agents 09:20 – Summary Resources Mentioned: Azure AI Foundry Agent Framework https://github.com/microsoft/agent-framework/tree/main Example source code on GitHub https://github.com/robkerr/robkerrai-demo-code/tree/main/ai-foundry-agents #AgenticAI #AzureAI #AutonomousAgents #AIEngineering #LLM #AIFramework
