Frantz Lohier, Senior Worldwide Specialist for Advanced Computing, AI and Robotics at Amazon Web Services, presents the “Introduction to Designing with AI Agents” tutorial at the May 2025 Embedded Vision Summit.
Artificial intelligence agents are components in an AI system that can perform tasks autonomously, making decisions and taking actions on their own. In this talk, Lohier explores the concept of AI agents, their benefits and how they can revolutionize AI development. He discusses the differences between agentic and non-agentic workflows, and how agents can improve the performance of existing models through reflection, tool use, planning and multiagent collaboration.
Lohier examines the types of AI agents, such as vision agents, LLM agents, math solver agents and code generation agents, and how they can be used in various AI-based systems. He also discusses how agents are created, trained, tested and integrated into AI systems. You’ll gain a working understanding of AI agents, their benefits and how they can be used in AI-based application development.
