From LLMs to Agentic AI: A Practical Guide to What They Mean and How to Choose

As definitions, use cases, expectations, and investments around Large Language Models (LLMs), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), AI agents, and agentic AI continue to expand, many individuals and organizations find themselves confused about how these concepts differ—and which approaches to adopt, when, and why.

This visual captures that evolution. Showing how AI is not just about isolated tools or models, but a layered architecture where every tier amplifies automation, decision‑making, and strategic insight. In that sense, the real opportunity lies not in adopting AI point solutions, but in orchestrating these layers into a coherent system that learns, adapts, and delivers compounding value over time.
