What if your AI could work independently toward your goals instead of just answering individual questions? In this episode, we explore AI agents—autonomous systems that can monitor information, make decisions, and take actions without constant oversight.Unlike traditional AI tools that respond to single requests, agents operate continuously to achieve specific objectives. For medical faculty, this means AI that can monitor research literature, track administrative deadlines, support educational workflows, and enhance clinical decision-making.In this episode we break down what AI agents actually are, explores types most relevant to clinical practice and medical education, and provides a practical framework for building your first agent using no-code platforms. The episode covers essential considerations for medical environments, including privacy, security, and integration with existing systems.Links from this episode:zapier.comifttt.commicrosoft.com/en-us/power-platform/products/power-automate
