> "Many vendors are contributing to the hype by engaging in 'agent washing' – the rebranding of existing products, such as AI assistants, robotic process automation (RPA) and chatbots, without substantial agentic capabilities," the firm says. "Gartner estimates only about 130 of the thousands of agentic AI vendors are real."

I'd expect 100% of "agentic AI" to be hype. It's a meaningless term because almost any long-running software with an execution engine can qualify. What really differentiates "real agentic" from "slapped IFTT and an LLM together"?
