In this riveting episode, the channel delves into the world of small agents, a groundbreaking library from Hugging Face that promises to revolutionize the way agents are built. With a focus on leveraging the vast array of open-source models on the Hugging Face Hub, including the impressive Quen 2.5 Kod 32 billion models, small agents offer a refreshing take on agency levels in AI. By striking a delicate balance between dynamic decision-making and flow direction changes, this library opens up new possibilities for creating intelligent agents that can adapt and evolve in real-time.
What sets small agents apart is their emphasis on code agents, allowing agents to communicate and work within a code environment. This innovative approach not only streamlines the development process but also ensures that agents can run in a sandboxed environment, providing a safe and secure platform for experimentation. Additionally, small agents offer first-class support for running code, further enhancing their versatility and functionality. By combining the power of code agents with traditional tool calling agents, small agents provide a comprehensive solution for building intelligent and adaptive agents.
As the successor to Transformer agents, small agents require minimal code to set up, making it incredibly easy to get started. By importing tools like the DuckDuckGo search tool and the Hugging Face API model, users can create custom tools and models tailored to their specific needs. The collab example featuring the GPT-3 model from OpenAI showcases the simplicity and efficiency of setting up a small agent to perform complex tasks, such as calculating mathematical queries or retrieving real-time information. Despite some limitations in allowed Python libraries, small agents demonstrate a robust problem-solving approach, iterating through different strategies to find solutions and adapt to challenges along the way.
