AI Agents at work

AI Agents are coming, and it may happen faster than you think. This book explains what AI Agents are, what the risks are, and what opportunities they bring. We show you how to prepare yourself and your organization for the arrival of AI Agents.

We, Maurits and Joris, first met in 2008 at Stanford University, where we were both working on our PhDs in AI. In recent years, we have once again immersed ourselves in AI Agents—reading, experimenting, and building our own. And yes, the hype is big. But behind the hype lies a future that will fundamentally change how we think about work. And of course, this book itself is also a collaboration with several AI Agents.

In this book, you’ll learn:

- How AI Agents really work (without the buzzwords)

- Which risks you need to manage (hallucinations, privacy, regulation)

- How your organization can develop AI maturity

- Successful real-world cases and future scenarios
