What makes agentic AI workloads different from traditional AI inference?
Traditional AI inference handles single prompt-response cycles, like asking a chatbot a question and getting one answer. Agentic AI workloads involve continuous operation where an AI system takes actions, observes results, reasons about next steps, and executes again in rapid succession. This demands sustained token throughput rather than peak batch processing power.
