Optimizing foundation models
Agents
Agents extend a generative AI model so it can act, not just answer.
Key functions
- Intermediary operations: connect the model to backend systems such as databases, CRM platforms, and service management tools.
- Launching actions: adjust settings, process transactions, retrieve documents.
- Feedback integration: collect the outcomes of actions to improve the model over time.
AnyCompany's three agents
- Agent 1 changes customers' plans based on their prompts.
- Agent 2 adds data from conversations to the enterprise database, which improves future RAG answers.
- Agent 3 sends a satisfaction survey when the conversation ends, to track the 4-out-of-5 goal.
A multi-step task chains actions together, such as calculating a value and then formatting the answer as JSON.
