Building Agents - Copilot Streaming an Agentic Workflow w/ Fast Inference (Llama 3, Groq, LangGraph)



AI Summary

  • Agent Prototype Demo Summary
    • New Agent Features:
      • Streams data from a complex workflow in real-time.
      • Enhances user experience beyond the chat interface for collaboration.
      • Explores the capabilities of agent workflows with fast inference speeds using Llama 3 and Grok.
    • Purpose of the Agent:
      • Designed for product teams without a PM.
      • Aids in brainstorming and refining product vision and ideation.
    • Workflow Process:
      • Extracts core ideas from user input (business objectives, customer problems, etc.).
      • Passes information to a vision writing agent that drafts, edits, and refines a product vision statement.
      • Generates follow-up questions to improve the vision statement.
    • Technological Backbone:
      • Utilizes LangGraph for coordinating workflow steps.
      • Built entirely on Llama 3, a 70 billion parameter model from Meta.
      • Employs Grok for fast inference, essential for real-time collaboration.
    • Advantages of Current Setup:
      • Fast enough to support interactive, iterative conversations.
      • Cost-effective compared to alternatives like GPT-4.
      • Quality of output is competitive with top-tier models.
    • Future of AI Tools:
      • Anticipates a trend towards faster, cheaper inference.
      • Believes in the continued need for specialized AI tools for specific tasks.
      • Predicts that open-source models will rival proprietary models like GPT-3.5 or Claude Hau.
    • Cost and Speed Considerations:
      • Grok offers the cheapest and fastest service currently.
      • Costs are expected to decrease while speeds increase.
      • Open-source models are becoming sufficiently advanced to replace more expensive options.
    • Conclusion:
      • The agent demonstrates the feasibility of real-time, collaborative AI workflows.
      • The future looks promising for AI tools with rapid advancements in speed, cost, and quality.
      • Specialized AI tools will remain relevant for guiding users through specific processes.
