AI Agents for Beginners: Building Your First AI Agent
AI agents are everywhere right now, and for good reason. They're transforming how we interact with software, moving beyond simple question-answer systems to tools that can actually *do things* for us. Most "agents" you see **aren't really** agents at all. Today, we're going to build a real agent that can think, decide, and act on its own.

#Vibecoding is fun but #AI is nowhere close to delivering production quality code. Perhaps this will change in the future.

Right now, it is excellent accessibility feature and slightly better stack overflow.

Ethical AI in HR isn’t a ‘nice to have’—it’s a ‘must have.’ 🛑 If your AI isn’t helping build better, more inclusive workplaces, then it’s just a glorified calculator. 🤖
