A try: An Agent is any object (which presumes a mechanism which clusters perceptions into objects, but which is a more general and separately solvable problem) whose interactions with other objects can best be modeled (in the sense of prediction) as having an inner model of the environment (which doesn’t require recursion but doesn’t preclude it).
