AI Tutorials

Building powerful AI applications that can reason over documents while maintaining data privacy is a critical need for many organizations. However, most solutions require cloud connectivity and can't operate in air-gapped environments.

In this tutorial, we'll create a powerful reasoning agent that combines local Deepseek models with RAG capabilities. It has a dual mode that can operate in both simple local chat mode and advanced RAG mode with DeepSeek R1.

  1. Local Chat Mode - Direct interaction with DeepSeek models running locally, perfect for general queries and conversations.

  2. RAG Mode - Enhanced reasoning with document processing, vector search, and optional web search integration for comprehensive information retrieval.

We share hands-on tutorials like this 2-3 times a week, designed to help you stay ahead in the world of AI. If you're serious about leveling up your AI skills and staying ahead of the curve, subscribe now and be the first to access our latest tutorials.

Latest Developments

Pocket Flow is a minimal 100-line framework that makes building LLM applications with multi-agents, prompt chaining, RAG, etc. simpler through nested directed graphs. Instead of rigid chains or complex agent systems, it models workflows as interconnected nodes that can be nested within each other. Each node handles a specific LLM task, while actions define how these nodes connect and interact.

This architecture makes it easy to break down complex AI tasks into smaller, manageable pieces that can be composed and reused. While other frameworks often bundle multiple features together, Pocket keeps things lean with a core abstraction that's just 100 lines of code, making it easy to understand and extend.

Key Highlights:

  1. Nested Graph Architecture - Build complex LLM applications by nesting graphs within graphs. Each flow can act as a node in a larger flow, letting you compose sophisticated behaviors from simple building blocks.

  2. Flexible Action System - Actions serve as labeled edges between nodes, controlling your application's flow. It gives you fine-grained control over application logic and complex behaviors like branching, looping, and dynamic routing between nodes.

  3. No Vendor Lock-in - Pocket Flow avoids vendor lock-in by not providing built-in LLM wrappers or tool integrations. You are free to integrate any LLM service or API using your preferred methods.

  4. Production-Ready Features - Includes practical features like error handling with automatic retries, state persistence across the workflow, and detailed logging. The nested graph structure lets you build reusable components that can be shared across projects.

  5. Minimal Dependencies - At just 56KB, Pocket adds minimal overhead to your project. You can easily understand what's happening under the hood.

Building multi-agent systems comes with complex agent orchestration challenges. When multiple AI agents work together, issues like task overlaps, resource conflicts, and competing actions become increasingly common, forcing us to spend time managing agent interactions instead of building features.

Meet OVADARE, an open-source conflict resolution framework to work alongside existing AI orchestration tools like AutoGen and CrewAI to ensure your multi-agent systems run smoothly. It detects and resolves conflicts between AI agents automatically, handling everything from task overlaps to resource allocation issues. With its modular design and straightforward integration patterns, you can quickly add robust conflict management to your existing workflows.

Key Highlights:

  1. Smart Conflict Detection - Built-in detection engine identifies common agent conflicts like task overlaps, resource competition, and priority mismatches. The system can spot potential issues before they impact your workflow and suggest preventive actions based on your policies.

  2. Resolution Rules - You can define how conflicts should be handled using straightforward Python policies. Set up automated responses for common scenarios or create detailed resolution workflows with multiple steps, fallback options, and human approval gates.

  3. Platform Support - It is built to work seamlessly with popular agent frameworks like AutoGen and CrewAI. This means you can add conflict resolution capabilities to your existing projects without major architectural changes – it's designed as a complementary layer, not a replacement.

  4. Performance Insights - Track conflict patterns, resolution success rates, and agent behavior through detailed logs and visualizations. These insights will help you optimize your policies and identify areas where agents frequently clash.

  5. Learning System - The framework improves over time by analyzing past conflicts and their resolutions. It automatically adjusts detection sensitivity and suggests policy updates based on what works best for your specific agent setup.

Quick Bites

Elon Musk's xAI has just released Grok 3, its latest flagship AI models series, directly challenging OpenAI's o models, GPT-4o and Google's Gemini. Grok 3 demonstrates significant improvements in reasoning and performamce, and is being rolled out slowly via the Grok app. The release also introduces a family of models including Grok 3 mini for faster responses, along with specialized reasoning variants designed to carefully analyze problems before providing solutions.

  • The model was trained using a massive computing infrastructure of approximately 200,000 GPUs in Memphis, with xAI claiming it utilizes 10x more computing power than its predecessor Grok 2.

  • Grok 3 outperforms GPT-4o on several key tests including AIME and GPQA, while its reasoning models reportedly surpass OpenAI's o3-mini-high across multiple benchmarks including AIME 2025. Also ranks #1 on Chatbot Arena.

  • The release introduces DeepSearch, a new feature that combines internet and X platform scanning capabilities to deliver research-focused abstracts, competing with OpenAI's deep research.

  • Access to Grok 3 will be initially available to X Premium+ subscribers ($50/month), while enterprise API access is expected to launch in the coming weeks.

Mistral AI has released a new batch API UI on their platform Le Plateforme, to create and monitor high-volume API requests through a visual interface. The service supports all Mistral models including fine-tuned ones, with a generous 1-million pending requests limit per workspace, offering pricing discounts for batch processing.

Meta is holding its first-ever dev-conference, LlamaCon 2025, where Meta will share the latest on their open-source AI developments for developers to build AI applications. This year it is taking place on April 29.

Tools of the Trade

  1. Scripton: MacOS-native Python IDE that comes with built-in real-time visualization and interactive debugging within the development environment— no notebooks or external servers. Has built-in plotting toolkits (Plotly and Observable Plot integration), GPU-accelerated rendering for matrices and tensors, and a canvas API for custom graphics.

  2. Lingo.dev: Automates software localization end-to-end using the latest LLMs, right from CI/CD. This localization engine understands product context, creating perfected translations that native speakers expect across 60+ languages.

  3. Pre.dev: Turns product ideas into technical prototypes and then matches you with developers to build them. It first generates technical specs and React prototypes through AI, then connects you with pre-vetted developers who can turn the prototype into a real product.

  4. TransformerLab: Open-source desktop application to download, train, fine-tune, and evaluate LLMs locally across different hardware (GPUs, TPUs, Apple Silicon) and inference engines (MLX, vLLM, Llama.cpp, Hugging Face). It provides a GUI for advanced LLM engineering tasks including RLHF, RAG, embeddings calculation, and dataset management. Supports popular models like Llama, Mistral, and Gemma.

  5. Awesome LLM Apps: Build awesome LLM apps with RAG, AI agents, and more to interact with data sources like GitHub, Gmail, PDFs, and YouTube videos, and automate complex work.

Hot Takes

  1. what if grok 3 sucks? what then? 100k GPUs and if it still sucks… ~
    anton


  2. I think Grok 3 came in right at expectations, so I don't think there is much to update in terms of consensus projections on AI: still accelerating development, speed is a moat, compute still matters, no obvious secret sauce to making a frontier model if you have talent & chips. ~
