August Meetup: AI Agents vs Chatbots
Discover how to build AI-powered workflows and automate everyday tasks.
OOverview
Welcome to the KanpurAI August Meetup! As artificial intelligence evolves beyond passive text completion into proactive system action, understanding autonomous AI Agents is becoming essential for developers, founders, and tech enthusiasts.
Led by Mr Utkarsh Katiyar, this meetup will break down how modern AI workflows operate behind the scenes—from core agentic loops and tool calling to visual workflow automation using n8n and multi-agent coordination.
Whether you want to automate repetitive business tasks, build intelligent agents for your startup, or chart your career path on the AI Engineering Roadmap, this session offers actionable insights and hands-on demonstrations.
