- Title: Intelligent Agents: An Overview
Summary: This article explores intelligent agents, defining them as systems that perceive and act upon their environment. The author emphasizes the crucial roles of tools and planning in agent capabilities, highlighting the challenges of compound mistakes and higher stakes in agentic applications. Different types of tools (knowledge augmentation, capability extension, and write actions) are discussed, along with planning strategies, failure modes, and evaluation methods. The text also touches upon the limitations of current large language models (LLMs) in planning and the potential for future advancements.
The core concept of an agent is its ability to perceive its environment (through sensors) and act upon it (through actuators). AI agents extend this by using AI models as "brains" to plan actions, select tools, and achieve user-defined tasks. The capabilities of an agent are significantly enhanced by its access to tools, which can range from simple calculators to complex APIs. These tools can be categorized as knowledge augmentation (e.g., web browsing, database queries), capability extension (e.g., code interpreters, translators), and write actions (e.g., modifying databases, sending emails). However, providing agents with write access requires careful consideration of security risks.
Effective planning is crucial for complex tasks. The author advocates for decoupling planning from execution, suggesting a three-component system: a plan generator, a plan validator, and a plan executor. This approach allows for validation of plans before execution, reducing wasted resources. The article also discusses different planning granularities (high-level vs. detailed plans) and control flows (sequential, parallel, conditional, and iterative). The limitations of current LLMs in planning are acknowledged, but the potential for improvement through better prompting, fine-tuning, and integration with other systems is highlighted. Finally, the text emphasizes the importance of evaluating agents for various failure modes, including planning failures (invalid tools, incorrect parameters, goal failure), tool failures (incorrect outputs), and efficiency issues.
