They might seem the same on the outside.
But under the hood? Huge differences. 🕵️
The most common question I've been asked lately:
“What is actually the difference between ChatGPT and an AI-Agent?”
Spoiler: It’s all about memory and tools.
But what does that mean in practice?
Here's a super simple example I built with N8N:
With ChatGPT, you can say, "My dog's name is Rex"
→ You open a new chat
→ Ask, "What's my dog's name?"
→ NO CLUE! 🤪
With an AI-Agent that has memory, on the other hand:
"You: My dog's name is Rex"
"You: What's my dog's name?"
"Agent: Your dog's name is Rex" ✅
That’s the game changer: Agents LEARN
and REMEMBER information across sessions.🧠
What this means for business:
→ Personalized customer support 👈
→ Continuous learning without re-entering data 👈
→ Possibility of much more complex workflows 👈
In my projects,
I see companies building AI solutions
that are 3-5 times more effective with this difference.
