Wohoo!!! Super Excited to Open Source - Agent from Scratch : a minimalist approach to understanding AI agents! My experience with building AI agents with existing frameworks and resources are that they are often too complex, with details buried deep in frameworks and dense research papers. Over the past year, I've had countless conversations with developers and ML engineers about AI agents and all of them voiced the same! By forking OpenAI's Swarm repository, I've created a stripped-down, single-script implementation that demystifies how agents work. No frameworks, no complexity - just a simple python script that you can read in 15 minutes! What's special about agent-from-scratch? ✅Single Python script (agent dot py) that shows exactly how agents work ✅Clear examples of both single and multi-agent systems ✅Perfect for developers who learn best by reading actual code ✅Fork-friendly: use it as a foundation for your own agent experiments 🤔 Spoiler alert: At their core, agents are simply LLMs with function-calling capabilities running in loops. Sometimes the simplest explanations are the best! Let us democratize Agents and make it accessible to everyone! Details about the repo in the comments

Excited to be invited to give a guest lecture at BITS Pilani, on "Building AI Agents in Production." Here’s what I’ll be covering: 1. What is an AI Agent? How does it differ from an LLM? 2. Autonomy in AI Agents: Exploring how planning and reasoning enable autonomy. 3. Solving a Task Traditionally: We'll tackle a task manually to understand the challenges. 4. Building an AI Agent Together: We'll code an AI Agent from scratch and let it autonomously solve the task. No prior knowledge of any specific framework is needed—we’ll build an AI agent from scratch! 📅 Date: Tuesday, November 26 ⏰ Time: 7:30 PM IST / 6:00 AM PT / 3:00 PM CET BITS has generously opened the event to external participants as well! So, even if you're not a part of BITS, you're more than welcome to join. This session will be particularly insightful for anyone eager to truly understand what an AI agent is and learn how to build one—cutting through the hype to focus on real-world implementation. The session will be remote. Event details are in the comments. Hope to see you there! 🚀 Thank you very much Dhruv for the invite!

I had a fantastic time speaking about Building Autonomous LLM Agents at the Belgium NLP meetup. What a wonderful audience! Thank you, Yves Peirsman, for the invitation. Looking forward to the next meetup!
