What is Agentic AI

Artificial Intelligence continues to evolve at an incredible pace, and on this episode of the Discover Montcalm Podcast, host Duane Weed sits down with Steven from Business Growth Engine to explore one of the newest trends in technology — Agentic AI.

What is Agentic AI: comparing other AI tools

Many people are familiar with AI tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT or Google Gemini, but Agentic AI takes automation to another level. Instead of simply responding to prompts, Agentic AI systems can begin learning workflows, automating repetitive tasks, and helping businesses make smarter decisions over time.

During this Tech Tuesdays episode, Steven explains how businesses can use AI to:

• Automate email management
• Improve customer follow-up
• Streamline daily operations
• Organize workflows
• Save time on repetitive tasks
• Improve customer relationship management

What is Agentic AI – pro and cons

The discussion also dives into concerns many business owners have about AI, including job replacement, automation fears, and maintaining the human side of business. Steven emphasizes that AI should be viewed as a tool — one that can help small businesses compete without replacing human creativity and relationships.

One of the featured topics is the development of the Nelson Operating System, an AI-powered business platform created by Business Growth Engine. The system uses Agentic AI concepts to help small businesses manage customer relationships, automate tasks, and identify growth opportunities.

For entrepreneurs and business owners in Montcalm County and beyond, this episode offers a practical introduction to AI tools and how they may shape the future of small business operations.
