Vocabulary

  • Agentic — The adjective for AI that acts rather than just answers. "Agentic AI" is the industry shorthand for this shift from responding to doing.
  • Artifact — Claude's side panel, where documents, code, and interactive visualizations are created and edited alongside the conversation instead of scrolling past in the chat.
  • Context — Everything the AI currently knows about your situation — the conversation so far, uploaded files, and saved instructions.
