Day 15 of 1% Better.

Today, I learned the difference between AI Workflows and AI Agents.

Here's the simplest way to think about it:

1. AI Workflow
↳ The AI follows a fixed set of steps.
↳ The steps are decided in advance.
↳ Best for tasks that are repeated again and again.

2. AI Agent
↳ The AI is given a goal, not a list of steps.
↳ It decides what to do next based on the results it gets.
↳ It can plan, use tools, and change its approach if needed.

3. When should you use a Workflow?
↳ When the steps are already known.
↳ When you want consistent and predictable results.

4. When should you use an Agent?
↳ When the AI needs to figure out the best way to solve a problem.
↳ When there isn't one fixed path to the answer.
