AI Agents, Clearly Explained
Three levels of using AI!
From: Jeff Su
Key Takeaways
Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT are passive systems that generate outputs based on inputs but can't access external information or take autonomous actions.
AI Workflows combine LLMs with external tools (like calendar access or weather data) but follow rigid, predefined paths set by humans who remain the decision-makers.
AI Agents represent the next level where the LLM itself becomes the decision-maker, autonomously reasoning about problems, selecting and using appropriate tools, and iterating until goals are achieved.
