Agent Types and Decision Making

Explore different agent types (e.g., ReAct, conversational) and their underlying mechanisms for deciding which tool to use.

Agent's Brain: How They Decide

Welcome! In this lesson, we'll dive into the fascinating world of how AI agents make decisions. It's what makes them seem 'smart' and capable of complex tasks.

Think of an agent as having a 'brain' that processes information and chooses the best next step from a set of options, often involving tools.

LLM: The Core Decision Maker

At the heart of most AI agents is a Large Language Model (LLM). The LLM isn't just for generating text; it's also the agent's primary decision-making engine.

  • It interprets your request.
  • It considers the available tools.
  • It generates a 'thought' process to decide what to do.

This 'thought' guides the agent's next action.
