In this episode of AI + a16z, a16z Infra partners Guido Appenzeller, Matt Bornstein, and Yoko Li discuss and debate one of the tech industry's buzziest words right now: AI agents. The trio digs into the topic from a number of angles, including:

- Whether a uniform definition of agent actually exists
- How to distinguish between agents, LLMs, and functions
- How to think about pricing agents
- Whether agents can actually replace humans, and
- The effects of data siloes on agents that can access the web.
- They don't claim to have all the answers, but they raise many questions and insights that should interest anybody building, buying, and even marketing AI agents.
