In this review talk I discuss the important issues of AGN research and how the new generation of X-ray observatories can help to constrain the physics of AGN. I also present a biased list of the new XMM-Newton and Chandra discoveries and how theyhave altered our view of AGN. I also present a set of what are the new types of observations that need to be performed to make significant progress in this field.
