Question: Do you think too, that 'agentic AI' is a PR-wise bad, yet unintentionally honest name in the age of surveillance?

    don't think it has a lot of built-in meaning

    In many languages, "agent" has the connotation of "spy". The more neutral term would be "acteur" or derivatives. That's why I think it is funny

    ah yeah, I guess it does. but funny I didn't read it that way, I think of it more like "real estate agent" which was probably the intent. but the multiple meanings is indeed funny!
