Deep Agents From LangGraph

在过去的一年里,AI Agent 的演进出现了两个非常重要的趋势: 智能体正在变得更通用(Generalist):可以承担越来越多类型的任务; 智能体的任务时长变得更长(Long-horizon):能够连续执行几十甚至上百个步骤的复杂任务。 根据 METR 的基准测试,AI 能自动完成的人类任务等效时长大约 每 7 个月翻倍。这意味着智能体从“短对话助手”,发展为“能够连续运行数百甚至上千步的自主系统”。 ...

Context Engineering

By 2025, existing models have already become remarkably intelligent. However, even the smartest system cannot perform effectively without understanding what it is being asked to do. Prompr engineering refers to the practice of phrasing tasks in an optimal way for large language model-based chatbots. Context engineering, on the other hand, represents the next stage - aiming to automate this process within dynamic systems. What is Context Engineering? Tobi, from Shopify, shared an interesting post in which he expressed his appreciation for the term “Context Engineering.” Later, Karpathy followed up with a brilliant definition: ...

How to Use Reasoning Models?

The following insights are drawn from the Reasoning with o1 video course by DeepLearning.ai. This article explores how to effectively prompt and utilize the new generation of reasoning models. Models released over the past year have demonstrated remarkable progress in reasoning and planning tasks. OpenAI has deeply optimized Chain of Thought (CoT) processing, using reinforcement learning to fine-tune models so they automatically integrate step-by-step reasoning into their response process. ...

Open Training Recipes for Reasoning in Language Models

In today’s rapidly evolving AI landscape, the remarkable progress we’ve witnessed is largely attributed to open scientific research and fully open models. However, as time progresses, more and more research and development work is becoming increasingly closed off. We still need to delve deeper into how language models work, improve their capabilities, and make them safer, more efficient, and more reliable. Simultaneously, we need to extend language models’ abilities beyond text into domains like healthcare, science, and even complex decision-making processes. Most importantly, we must bring these models into real-world applications, ensuring they are deployable, interpretable, and effectively mitigate biases and risks. ...

Memory, Reasoning, and Planning of Language Agents

Language Agents have emerged as one of the most exciting research directions in AI over the past two years. This article explores three core components: long-term memory via HippoRAG, reasoning capabilities with Grokked Transformers, and world modeling through WebDreamer. Why Agents Again? Russell & Norvig in “Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach” define an agent as “anything that can perceive its environment through sensors and act upon that environment through actions.”(@ArtificialIntelligenceModern) ...

LLM Agents: Brief History and Overview

Introduction To understand LLM agents, we need to break the term into two foundational components: Large Language Models (LLMs) and Agents. While LLMs have gained widespread recognition, the concept of “agent” in this context requires deeper exploration. What is an Agent? In artificial intelligence, an agent is an “intelligent” system that perceives and interacts with an “environment” to achieve specific goals. The classification of agents varies based on their operational environment: ...
