Key Terms

Agentforce Life Sciences technical

Agentforce Life Sciences is a company that develops advanced technologies to improve the way medicines are delivered and used in the human body. Its innovations aim to make treatments more effective, safer, and easier for patients to follow. For investors, understanding such companies is important because they can influence the future of healthcare and have the potential to grow as new medical solutions become widely adopted.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) technical

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a system that helps financial models understand and share information about market conditions and data. It’s like a common language that ensures different tools and models work together smoothly, making predictions and decisions more accurate and consistent.

Agent Fabric technical

An agent fabric is a network of fake online identities or accounts created to influence opinions, spread false information, or manipulate perceptions. It’s similar to a group of pretend fans or critics working behind the scenes to sway public opinion or market behavior. For investors, recognizing agent fabric is important because it can distort true market signals and lead to misguided decisions.

AI agents technical

AI agents are computer programs designed to perform tasks or make decisions automatically, often by learning from data and adapting to new information. They act like virtual assistants or robots that can handle complex activities without human intervention, which can help businesses and individuals save time and improve efficiency. For investors, AI agents matter because they can enhance decision-making and automate processes that influence markets and financial outcomes.
