Highlights
“Multi-agent systems combine groups of agents together to accomplish tasks in a way that any one of the constituent agents wouldn’t be able to alone. We believe these systems may represent the best path towards agentic AI, becoming more intelligent through the diversity of their specialized sub-agents instead of the scale of a single centralized model.”
Something I'd like: agents with budgets.
Assign an agent a budget and a purpose--books to read in a long weekend; stuff for my son's birthday party; a better personal productivity stack, etc. Let it loose.
Likely higher output, fewer decisions
Who has one for me to try?
