Agents of Change: Your Ultimate AI Agent Resource List
Just accept it: AI isn’t “emerging tech” anymore. It’s here. It’s working. And it’s changing how businesses operate.
Some numbers for execs stuck debating AI policy in boardrooms: agentic automation cuts operational costs by 25% and enhances productivity by 40%. Perhaps, it's time to move on to some action?
BTW, you don’t need a PhD or a 10-person ML team to start. But you do need the right tools, resources, and mindset.
That’s where this list comes in. I’ve curated the most useful, practical, and battle-tested resources out there. Free tools, frameworks, real agents you can clone, and practical guides to help you start using AI, not just reading about it.
Let’s get into it.
Google Cloud: Official Tools & Frameworks
Start with trusted, enterprise-ready foundations. Google’s pushing hard into GenAI and AI agents — here are the top tools I recommend:
