July 21, Beijing /PRNewswire/ -- Today, AI is rapidly advancing, and the AI agent is at the forefront of technology. Recently, IBM announced a major breakthrough in developing a general-purpose enterprise AI agent (IBM Computer Using Generalist Agent, or IBM CUGA), which has garnered widespread attention from the industry.
After releasing the Watson x Orchestrate platform at Think 2025, IBM Research Institute has made another significant leap forward in the field of enterprise-level intelligence.
What is IBM CUGA?
Traditional AI agents in enterprise applications are often "single-function experts" - e.g., processing invoices, generating emails, tracking sales progress. While these functions may be useful, they often struggle to cope with complex scenarios that involve multiple processes, systems, and business domains.
IBM CUGA is designed for complex business scenarios. It is a general-purpose AI agent that can integrate multiple tools, execute complex tasks, and learn from feedback to improve its performance. Like an experienced employee, it can understand user intent, plan tasks, call tools, coordinate with multiple systems, and continuously learn and adapt to new challenges.
