Book Introduction
A word from MD
The era of AI agents has arrived.
Until recently, the core of AI utilization was prompt engineering.
However, the era of "AI agents"—AI that make decisions and perform tasks on its own—has arrived. A new book by IT communicator Kim Deok-jin offers in-depth insights into the changes these AI agents will bring to the workplace and how they can be utilized.

AI Workers, Now is the Age of Agents!

When people first started using conversational AI in earnest in 2022, three years ago, they were amazed by the very idea of ​​“AI answering questions.”
The following year, 2024, was a time to learn “how to get good answers from AI.”
But by 2025, three years later, people now expect AI to “just do it for them.”
The era of 'AI Agent' has arrived.

In "AI Agent" (Trend & Utilization Encyclopedia), a video with 14 million views, the hottest IT communicator, Director Kim Deok-jin, and strategic planning consultant Kim A-ram guide you through the latest AI agents so you can easily understand and immediately utilize them.
He stands out for his outstanding ability to explain complex technologies in a way that anyone can understand, and his know-how that can be applied immediately in the field.

From the latest AI agent trends to utilization know-how, including Perplexity, Operator, Computer Use, GenSpark, Deep Research, Fellow, Manus, Stream Realtime, and Notebook LM, all in one book!

Publisher's Review
Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, said, “By 2025, we could see the first AI agents making a real difference in the performance of businesses.”

In order to achieve 'collaboration' with AI agents, which will become more common in the future, hands-on experience and practice are essential.
Just like learning a new language, it requires a process of interacting directly with an AI agent, making mistakes, and learning.

『AI Agent』(Trend & Utilization Encyclopedia) is a 'Trend & Utilization Encyclopedia' book that allows anyone to easily utilize AI agents.
This practical guide is designed to be applied immediately to work, and its strength lies in not only explaining how to use the tool but also suggesting a "new way of thinking" for working with AI agents.

My work partner, an AI agent that works on its own without human intervention.

An AI agent is an AI representative who does my work on my behalf.
For example, ChatGPT's deep research allows you to write in-depth reports on the latest industry trends and countermeasures overseas, at a doctoral level, in just a few hours, instead of days.
The operator accesses the Yanolja website on my behalf, searches for a hotel that fits my request, and makes a reservation and payment.


If you're looking for a B2B supplier, Manus will help you find and organize suppliers that meet your desired price and quality criteria.
Zenspark Super Agent completes everything from planning to storyboarding and image creation in one go.
The Notebook LM secures your company's internal data while extracting key insights and even creating natural-sounding Korean-language podcasts.
There are even AI agents that can create your online business card page, homepage, and even English learning app in minutes with just a few lines of request.

Chapter 1 introduces the current state of the art in AI agents and explores the future of AI agents being envisioned by global AI companies such as OpenAI, Google, Antropic, and Microsoft.


The AI ​​agent economy is coming!

AI agents go beyond simple technological adoption to encompass individual capacity enhancement, organizational culture transformation, and even business model innovation, extending the breadth and depth of change.
Already, examples are emerging where workers are freed from repetitive tasks and focused on creative pursuits through AI agents, startups and small and medium-sized enterprises are demonstrating capabilities comparable to large corporations with limited resources, and new business models are being created.
Leading companies have already begun considering AI capabilities as a key evaluation factor in their hiring processes.

Chapter 2 traces the changes in our work and lives brought about by AI agents, including the rapidly changing AI utilization paradigm, the emergence of the agent economy, the era of the smart minority, and the AI ​​distribution business.

The latest AI agent, all in one volume!

"In the age of AI, discernment is now essential." With the proliferation of agent tools, we've selected and introduced only those that can be applied to your work immediately.
From Operator to Computer Use, Perplexity, Genspark, Deep Research, Fellow, Stream Realtime, Notebook LM, Manus, Galaxy AI, Apple Intelligence, and more, the latest AI agent utilization know-how is all in one book!

Practice-Oriented: How to Turn AI Agents into Collaborative Partners

The authors, Kim Deok-jin, director of the IT Communication Research Institute, and Kim A-ram, a strategic planning expert, have been IT communicators for over a decade, providing lectures and consulting services to hundreds of companies and local governments each year, and thus know the "voices of the field" better than anyone else.


The strength of 『AI Agent』(Trend & Utilization Encyclopedia) is its practical application.
Rather than simply explaining concepts, it provides concrete methods for handling AI as a collaborative partner, along with practical scenarios that can be applied to real-world work.
For example, in Chapters 4 and 5, you can follow along with research, mind mapping, and report creation using various agents such as Perplexity, Genspark, Deep Research, and Fellow.
It also includes specific prompt tips, making it ideal for developing a practical AI sense.

AI strategies for your organization, all in one book!

Chapter 8 covers AI utilization strategies beyond the individual to the organizational level.
We explore what startups and small businesses should consider when adopting AI agents, the pros and cons of using open-source models, security and ethical issues, and the impact of agent adoption across industries.
In particular, practical examples related to 'workflow restructuring' will be of great help to middle managers and planners.
The advantage is that it is designed to go beyond simple usage and provide a comprehensive view of AI adoption in my work, my team, and my company.

In the future business world, those who succeed will not be those who work the hardest, but those who work the smartest.
『AI Agent』(Trend & Utilization Encyclopedia) will serve as a starting point for its design.
