*This whole document is from Class 1 of the AI Agents module, the
introductory class, taught by Sir Tanveer Nandla and Sir Faheem Akhtar.*

## The module

- **AI Agents** is a new module. It runs **in parallel** with the SEO
  module, and SEO carries on.
- It covers **vibe coding**, **agentic AI**, **LLM integration** and
  more.
- The instructor is **Sir Faheem Akhtar**. He has built workar.com end to
  end, built KWScanner, and has done dozens and dozens of
  projects.[^ai-agents-class-01]

## Why AI, and why now

- SEO alone will not do the work any more. AI is a must; there is no
  getting by without it.
- The era before **2023** was different. The era after 2023 is completely
  different: it is a completely new world.
- **Scope:** this work will be useful in every business and every
  industry.[^ai-agents-class-01]

## Who it is for

- This is **not for everyone**. It is only for a **technical** person.
- It involves a lot of **self study**.
- If you are good at **maths**, this is for you.[^ai-agents-class-01]

## The road to AI agents

AI agents are the **highest stage**. To get there, you will have to go
through quite a few stages first.[^ai-agents-class-01]

## What to set up first

1. Install an **IDE** (**Cursor**), **Git** and **Python**.
2. Create a **GitHub** account.
3. Take a **$20** subscription to **one** of Cursor, Claude or
   ChatGPT.[^ai-agents-class-01]
