It's interesting how long the word "agents"/"intelligent agents" have been around for and how long they've been hyped up for. If you go back to the 80s and 90s you will see how Microsoft was hyping up "intelligent agents" in Windows but nothing ever became of it[1].

I have yet to see an actual useful usecase for agents despite the countless posts asking for examples nobody has provided one.
