#16: AI Agent primer with founders of Agentops.AI.
If you talk with a developer who is using AI to build new kinds of systems they are probably building AI agents. But very few people in society have even heard of them. So, I wanted to get a primer on agents, and that led me to the founders of Agentops.ai. They claim "AI Agents Suck. We're Fixing That" on their website. We cover everything from what they are, how to use them, to mistakes people make as they start using AI agents. Learn more: https://www.agentops.aiSponsored by AI Top Tools. www.AITopTools.com

#15: Digging into explainable AI
Finally an AI model that can tell you why it gives you the answers it does!!
Angelo Dalli is building a new kind of AI that fixes the problems of current large language models. Existing models generate errors, AKA “hallucinations” but can’t tell you why.
His AI, built using neurosymbolic techniques, will be able to get rid of these errors, but even better, explain why it makes the decisions it does.
Here he talks to me about the state of the art of current AIs and where we are going.
