46) List and describe the three types of intelligent agents. What intelligent agents do you use and how?

Information agent – search for information and display it to users; a buyer agent or shopping bot is one type that helps customers find the product and services they need on a web site

Predictive agent – constantly observe and report on some item of interest

User agent – also called personal agents that take action on your behalf

Student piece – if they use Amazon.com, they use information agents through the “recommended for you” section; if they own stock, they may use predictive agents; if they fly or use eBay, they may use predictive agents to monitor price changes; if they use Gmail and star any e-mails or have any kind of sorting rules in place, they would use a user agent
