Dr. Asish Pati of ITER, Bhubaneswar

Agentic AI represents a paradigm shift from passive artificial intelligence to active, autonomous systems capable of independent decision-making and action. This talk explores the architectural foundations of agentic systems—from perception-action cycles to multi-agent coordination frameworks—and demonstrates their transformative impact through real-world applications in network management and urban traffic systems. We'll examine how these intelligent agents operate, coordinate, and adapt, offering unprecedented efficiency, resilience, and predictive capabilities. Join us to understand how agentic AI is moving us from human-managed systems to human-supervised intelligence, creating infrastructures that think, anticipate, and heal themselves.
