AI Agents Defined

  • AI agents possess LLMs as brains, interpret instructions, and make decisions.
  • They act autonomously to achieve set goals, using tools and memory for reasoning.
INSIGHT

Agent Memory Types

  • Agents need various memory types, including short-term for current interactions and long-term for past information.
  • Semantic memory is crucial, linking different events and enabling effective reasoning and planning.

Knowledge Graphs and LLMs

  • Knowledge graphs are data structures that model complex relationships using triples (two entities and a relationship).
  • LLMs enable automated and scalable extraction of entities and relationships from data, surpassing manual methods.
