The TWIML AI Podcast (formerly This Week in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence)
Effective Communication is Key
Effective communication with language models (LLMs) remains crucial for optimal performance. Many agents underperform due to inadequate context provided through prompts, retrieval mechanisms, or available tools. The industry continues to explore the best methods for interacting with LLMs. Other important factors impacting agent efficacy include latency and cost, with latency being a primary concern, especially in high-frequency chat scenarios. Observability tools like Langsmith play a significant role in enhancing agent development by offering insights into performance through features like tracing, which details the agent's steps, inputs, and outputs.
