AI Agent vs Chatbot
Domain: Hermes Fundamentals
Motivation
A chatbot only replies with text. An AI agent can also take actions, such as running code, editing files, or sending messages. This difference is why Hermes can actually finish tasks, not just talk about them.
Concrete Example
A chatbot tells you how to convert a video. Hermes actually runs the conversion command and hands you the new file.
Analogy
A chatbot is like a friend who gives directions. An agent is like a friend who walks with you to the destination.
