AI Agent 101 with Claude Cowork
Details
Agentic AI isn’t slowing down — but you don’t need four hours to get oriented. In this focused 60‑minute workshop, you’ll build a clear mental model of what agentic AI actually is, beyond the hype and buzzwords.
We’ll use Claude Cowork as our live anchor and walk through how modern AI agents break down goals, plan steps, call tools, and hand work back to you. You’ll see concrete examples of agents coordinating tasks, so you can understand what’s really happening under the hood instead of copying random “agent” prompts from the internet.
## In this 1‑hour session, you will:
- Learn the core concepts of agentic AI (agents, tools, workflows, autonomy levels) in plain language.
- Watch Claude Cowork in action as we map a real task into an agent workflow from idea to execution.
- Practice structuring prompts so agents can plan, delegate, and report back clearly.
- Leave with a simple template you can reuse to design your own agentic workflows in any domain.
## Who this is for
- Non‑technical founders, operators, and creators who want to use AI agents in real work without becoming engineers.
- Builders and tinkerers who have tried “agents” before but still feel fuzzy on how they actually work.
No coding experience needed; just bring your laptop and a real task or workflow you’d love to automate or streamline
