Great one line summary: AI agents are autonomous agents that can create plans, have access to tools (web search, database access, API invocation etc), have memory, use RAG, and finally take actions (send email, schedule a meeting etc)
awesome video, loved it! My AI tech consists just of openai, crewai & composio, that's it.
Such a simple and easy to understand explanation. Appreciate it
First of all, thank you so much. I have to learn everything on 2.0 speed because I am doing always 1 million things. That’s why I would like to learn how to create agents. I am also worried about making an agent that makes mistakes so how does it generate its chain of actions. Do you also have a short course on step one step two step three to creating an agent that can perform a single or three actions and from where does it operate? Can it be on your computer? Is it via your browser? I know these are sounding very ignorant, but I’m quite familiar with using different. LLMs and I am glad you roped that in to explain the difference. I’m also trying to understand the difference between the assistant versus the agent. The assistant is just doing LLM work in context with an app And the agent is autonomously, figuring out actions that are happening when you are at your computer and starting a series of actions based on that? Thank you so much for a great video and looking forward to learning more even if you just send a link to another video that explains that’s so great and thank you!
