While thousands of companies claim to sell #AI agents, only a fraction are actually building real ones. The test is dead simple: look at what the product actually outputs: - If it’s a classification (spam or not spam), a number, or a probability, it’s not generative AI. - If the output is new text, images, or video that didn’t exist before, it is. Google’s own products show this perfectly: 1. Gmail’s spam filter relies on classification, so it’s NOT generative AI. 2. Google Docs’ “Help me write” generates brand-new text from scratch, which IS generative AI. 3. Google’s Antigravity and Anthropic’s Cowork rely on agents that can autonomously think and iterate, meaning they are actually agentic products. Don’t be fooled by marketing speak that packages basic functions as “agentic AI.”
