Are AI agents just overhyped chatbots — or the future of business operations?

With every platform from Salesforce to ChatGPT touting “agents,” it’s easy to get lost in the jargon. But building agents that actually work — ones that can execute tasks, coordinate like a real team, and drive real ROI — is a different story.

In this episode, we cut through the noise. You’ll discover how to build orchestrated AI agent systems that not only think and act, but also talk to each other like a high-performing business team.

Our guest, Jake George — founder of Agentic Brain — brings his rare blend of COO-level business ops insight and cutting-edge AI development to walk us through exactly how he designs and deploys AI agents that make a measurable impact.

In this session, you’ll discover:

• The key differences between a traditional LLM and a true AI agent (and why most tools misuse the term)
• What agent orchestration actually means — and why you need it to scale your AI strategy
• How Jake builds multi-agent systems using Slack and N8N to automate real-world business workflows
• The anatomy of a powerful agent prompt — from roles and rules to tool descriptions and strategic reasoning

• How to balance autonomy vs. structure when designing AI workflows
• What business leaders must know before hiring an AI agency or building agents in-house

Jake George is the founder of Agentic Brain, a custom AI solutions agency focused on developing real-world AI agent systems for businesses.
