What are some components of a system designed for AI?
Press to flip
Components include tuned models, large language models, image generation models, programmatic components, output verifiers, query breakdowns, and tools for database searching.
Why are systems designed with modular components advantageous over tuning monolithic models?
Modular systems offer faster adaptability and problem-solving capabilities, combining various components for more efficient solutions.
Describe the role of control logic in compound AI systems.
Control logic determines the problem-solving path and is typically human-defined for specific contexts.
Differentiate between the 'think fast' and 'think slow' approaches for AI agents.
'Think fast' involves acting as programmed without deviation, whereas 'think slow' involves planning, iterative solving, and necessary adjustments.
What significant shift in AI is anticipated for the year 2024?
2024 is anticipated to be the year of AI agents, marked by advancements in generative AI and AI agent systems.
What is the agentic approach in AI agents?
In the agentic approach, a Large Language Model (LLM) takes charge of control logic, leveraging improved reasoning abilities.
How does the scale of AI autonomy relate to problem types?
Narrow problem sets are efficiently handled by a programmatic approach, while complex tasks benefit from an agentic approach.
What are the three components of Large Language Model (LLM) agents?
Reasoning, action (using external programs/tools), and memory (storing inner logs and conversation history for personalized responses).
What are the future expectations for compound AI systems and AI agents?
There is anticipation of rapid evolution with compound AI systems and agentic behavior, although human oversight will remain crucial as accuracy improves.
What are the limitations of monolithic AI models?
Monolithic AI models are limited by training data and are hard to adapt without significant investment.
Give an example of how an AI agent could plan a vacation.
AI agents can assess vacation days, predict sun exposure, recommend sunscreen dosages, and perform necessary calculations using a modular system.
What does REACT stand for in the context of AI agents?
REACT stands for Reasoning and Acting, referring to agents that combine these components to solve complex queries.
What is an example of a popular compound AI system and its application?
RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) is an example, and it can be used for tasks like searching a vacation policy database.
How do compound AI systems differ from monolithic models?
Compound AI systems integrate models into existing processes, combining them with databases and tools for more versatile functionalities, unlike monolithic models.
What is a REACT (Reasoning and Acting) agent?
A REACT agent combines reasoning and action components to handle complex queries through processes like vacation planning and sunscreen calculation.
