ChatGPT and plugins were already agents. An agent just does stuff on somebody else’s behalf. Browsing, browses the Internet for the user, code interpreter creates and runs Python code for the user…
What you describe are what’s called autonomous agents, and i agree that I also expected some interesting announcement there but probably too many security issues.
- golol 3y agoWell, I would say that when people at the moment say agent they mean what you call autonomous agent. Browsing or code interpreter is just LLM + tool use. I think there is a really large difference in quality between a system that just interacts 1-2 times with some tool/API before giving an answer and one that runs in a loop with undefined length (until it decides to terminate). It's like the difference between programming without loops or recursion vs with them. Night and day.
- jondwillis 3y agoCurrently the loop results in compounding errors and attention failure. Even with reviews, grounding information, and veracity checks in place by other LLMs it still happens.
- golol 3y agoYes, agents don't really work yet, I agree.
