AI Tutorials
In this tutorial, we have built a multi-agent AI recruitment system. We will create specialized agents powered by GPT-4o, that each handles different parts of the workflow - from parsing PDFs and analyzing technical skills to integrating with Zoom for scheduling and managing email communications.
This sophisticated recruitment system can take a candidate's resume, analyze their skills against job requirements, automatically schedule interviews for qualified candidates, and handle all the email communications - while recruiters just monitor the process through a simple dashboard.
We're using Phidata, a framework specifically designed for orchestrating AI agents. It provides the infrastructure for agent communication, memory management, and tool integration. Using Phidata, we can easily create agents that not only process multiple input modalities but also reason about them in combination.
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
PraisonAI combines existing agent frameworks like AutoGen and CrewAI into a flexible low-code solution that makes building multi-agent systems more approachable. The framework lets you create and manage AI agents through simple YAML configurations or code, with both no-code and code-based workflows supported.
Going beyond basic agent orchestration, PraisonAI comes with built-in self-reflection capabilities, real-time voice interaction, and tools for tasks like internet search and calendar management. You can start prototyping with ready-made components and scale up to production without changing your codebase.
Key Highlights:
Creating Versatile Agents - Get started quickly with no-code YAML configurations or dive deeper with the Python SDK. The framework supports both AutoGen and CrewAI, letting you create hierarchical or sequential agent workflows. Built-in tools handle everything from web searches to document processing, while custom tools can be added through a straightforward API.
Self-Reflecting Agents - PraisonAI agents can reflect on and re-evaluate their initial responses before providing final output. When given a task, each agent generates a response, evaluates its own work, and iteratively improves it until reaching a satisfactory result. This gives higher-quality outputs for complex tasks.
Flexible Deployment - Run agents locally during development using Ollama, then seamlessly switch to cloud providers like OpenAI or Groq for production. The framework maintains consistent APIs across different LLM providers, making it easy to experiment with various models or implement fallbacks without code changes.
Real-time Interaction Capabilities - Enable voice-based interactions through the real-time module, complete with text-to-speech output and conversation history. The framework also includes chat and code interfaces, letting users interact with agents through their preferred medium. Each interface comes with specialized features like internet search and file processing.
Integrated Development Tools - Debug and monitor agent behavior through comprehensive logging and UI tools. The framework provides interfaces for testing agent interactions, reviewing conversation histories, and analyzing performance. Integration with evaluation frameworks helps validate agent behavior and measure improvements.
The need for secure environments when deploying AI agents is a growing concern, especially when these agents interact directly with systems and browsers. MarinaBox, a new open-source toolkit, provides isolated desktop and browser sandboxes via Docker containers.
This allows you to develop locally and deploy your AI agent workflows to the cloud. Beyond basic sandbox functionality, MarinaBox includes features for live session viewing, recording capabilities, and human-in-the-loop interactions - letting you monitor and intervene in AI agent activities when needed.
Key Highlights:
Seamless Integration & Control - Get started quickly with a Python SDK and CLI that works directly with Playwright and Selenium. Create, manage, and monitor sandbox sessions programmatically, with support for both browser and desktop environments. The toolkit handles container management and session recording behind the scenes.
Built for AI Agent Development - Execute natural language commands in sandboxed environments using Anthropic’s Computer Use API. The isolation ensures AI agents can perform tasks without accessing sensitive system resources.
Live Monitoring & Intervention - Embed real-time session views in your applications using simple iframes. The live viewing capability enables human oversight and intervention, making it easier to build reliable AI automation with human-in-the-loop safeguards.
Developer-Friendly - Run everything locally during development with the same API calls you'll use in production. The modular design lets you start with basic browser automation and gradually add features like session recording or human oversight as your needs evolve.
Quick Bites
DeepSeek V3 Base model has landed on Hugging Face! This massive 685B parameter Mixture-of-Experts model, boasting 256 experts (8 experts for each token), outperforms Claude 3.5 Sonnet on the Aider benchmark. This FP8 model features a significantly expanded architecture compared to V2, including a larger vocabulary and a doubled layer count.
Tired of “CUDA out of memory” errors? PyTorch now offers a built-in memory visualizer tool that helps you track and analyze GPU memory usage patterns during model training. The tool generates detailed memory snapshots that can be visualized through an interactive web interface at pytorch.org/memory_viz, so you can identify memory bottlenecks and optimize your training pipelines.
Microsoft has open-sourced PromptWizard, a framework to automate prompt optimization. This tool uses feedback from language models to iteratively refine both instructions and examples, creating really effective prompts. Available now on GitHub, you can create highly effective prompts with minimal training data and computational resources.
Tools of the Trade
Jupyter Agents: LLMs run data analysis code directly in Jupyter notebooks, handling tasks like loading data, creating plots, and analyzing results based on user input. It comes equipped with common data science libraries and follows a structured protocol for data exploration and analysis.
AI Testing Agent: Open-source AI agent that automatically generates test plans and tests code for your API endpoints. You can iteratively improve the generated tests by providing “feedback” to the agent in natural language.
otto-m8: No-code platform to create AI workflows by connecting different AI models through a flowchart UI. Once you design a workflow, it automatically deploys it as a REST API that you can integrate with other applications or use as a standalone service.
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
Prediction: the invention of AGI will be like the end of covid, not the start of covid.
There won't be a single defining event; we'll just gradually stop talking about it. ~
Jared FriedmanWe need unlimited software, and we need unlimited increase in quality (most software today sucks.)
I believe AI will help us build more and better software. I believe AI will help more people become developers, not fewer.
AI should add, never subtract. ~
