Manage episode 514012229 series 3688630
Agentic AI is here — and it’s redefining what it means to work, learn, and stay competitive in the modern job market.
In this episode of AI and Your Next Job, Brian C. Newman breaks down what “agentic AI” really means and why it’s the next major leap beyond today’s chatbots and copilots. These new systems don’t just answer questions — they think, plan, and act on your behalf. From job hunting to project management, agentic AI has the potential to automate complex workflows and unlock new levels of productivity.
Brian explains how these systems work in plain language, explores what kinds of careers will emerge from this transformation, and outlines a simple action plan for professionals who want to stay ahead. You’ll learn:
- What agentic AI actually is — and how it’s different from the tools you use today
- How businesses are adopting AI agents to reshape recruiting, marketing, and daily operations
- Why employers will value “AI fluency” and the ability to direct intelligent systems
- Real-world ways to start using agentic tools like CrewAI, AutoGPT, and ChatGPT’s new agents
- How to build your personal AI literacy portfolio — even if you’re not a developer
Whether you’re a job seeker trying to stand out, a mid-career professional looking to reskill, or a leader preparing for the next wave of automation, this episode will give you a clear, practical roadmap for working with AI — not competing against it.
