AI agents are transforming various industries by automating tasks, enhancing decision-making, and providing personalized experiences. With their ability to analyze vast amounts of data, adapt to new information, and interact with users in natural ways, AI agents are becoming integral to advancing technology and improving efficiency across sectors. As they continue to evolve, their potential to drive innovation and solve complex problems expands, offering exciting opportunities for the future.

The best advantage of agents is the ability to check and verify each llm output, in addition to querying your leave balance, it can also query your leave entitlement, and how many leave days have been used up, to compare. This will take the accuracy of AI systems from 75% to 99.95%.

Fantastic Maya! Your detailed explanation of the shift from monolithic AI models to modular, compound AI systems is enlightening. It's fascinating to see how the integration of LLMs with agent-based systems can enhance adaptability and enable more dynamic interactions across various applications. I'm especially intrigued by the 'ReAct' framework, Combining Reason, Action, and Access memory-as a means to boost AI's adaptability and autonomy. Looking forward to more insights on this topic! With the Rise of AI Agents in 2024, the Age of 'Jarvis' is on the horizon 🤖

[@henryjraymondiii961]

According to IBM, an artificial intelligence (AI) agent is a system or program capable of autonomously performing tasks on behalf of a user or another system. These agents design their workflows and utilize available tools to achieve their goals. AI agents can handle a wide range of functionalities, including decision-making, problem-solving, interacting with external environments, and executing actions. They are often built on large language models (LLMs) and can adapt to user expectations over time, providing a personalized experience. AI agents are used in various applications, from software design and IT automation to code-generation tools and conversational assistants.

AI Agent models are broad, complex and yet customizable to the instances, It can retrieve data from our past inputs and give relevant outputs by doing all sorts of thinking, reasoning and iterations.

[@markuaunyong929]

We all know that AI operates on massive amounts of data from the crowd and follows the commands we input. What if we divided the AI's brain mechanism into three main parts: 1. Random real data (instead of waiting for human input), 2. Correcting random data, saving corrections, and looping (similar to the body's immune system remembering how to eliminate pathogens), and 3. Genetic code (the defined behaviors and rules of AI)? For example, humans have different personalities. Some are born perfect, intelligent, and cheerful, while others are aggressive. (To create behaviors that lead to progress and safety, we can remove negative traits, similar to genetic engineering.) For instance, greed leads to decline, aggression and anger lead to violence, and delusion or stupidity hinder progress. In summary, we can remove these three emotions. (Expected outcome) Create errors and successes for AI to learn from various error data through looping, memorization, and self-improvement, similar to human behavior that seeks self-development. In conclusion, to create AI that closely resembles humans, we need to integrate the brain mechanism and the crowd. Comparing the crowd to clear water and the brain mechanism to red color, when we combine them, we get red water. AI brain: Red water.

Complex systems relatively new concept but we already have overwhelmingly many platforms. tools and techniques like langchain, graphRAG, beam etc. and another important moment is to find the simple way to compare those complex system for efficiency. Crazy interesting topic, Thank You for your effort. Liked

[@VanCliefMedia]

Absolutely! The focus of multi agent systems will be the major need. Ensuring large context can be narrowed and integrated into systems unlocks so much potential.

[@FingersKungfu]

It’s Agent as in “Agent Smith” (in the Matrix). They are special.

[@Nieosoba]

The big question is: is it more cost-efficient to use AI to solve mostly redundant, repetitive and easy problems? It is cool to see AI generate tasks for teams based on technical requirements or plan holiday, but is this automation worth the money? Are all of those low value added organization/office tasks where labour is cheep anyway? What about industrial AI? I think this concept don't even make sense, it is against principle logic of automated industrial production. You can implement it, but it will probably result in more costs than value added to the products. Will cost of AI usage fell down when it will scale? Not sure about this, agents are good to move towards some more realistic usage of LLM

its a decent explanation, but i feel we are granting LLMs too much credit. They don't reason. They number crunch for the highest probability. That is all. And as for complex agentic behaviour, I can see over time their output becoming less stable not more as we add complexity. Imagine being told 1 minute you need 3 bottles, then running it again, and being told you need 5. Even that small a variation is outside what humans can generally achieve. Costs will rise, and so will variability.
