Tools are a fundamental part of agentic AI, alongside these core capabilities: While language models excel at understanding and generating text, tools extend their abilities by letting them interact with the real world: searching the web for current information, executing code for calculations, accessing databases, reading files, or connecting to external services through APIs. Think … Read more

I’ve been exploring how LLM applications with automated query scheduling – like cron-based tasks – can generate daily newsletters and curated content updates. The potential here is incredible: staying continuously updated on specific domains without any manual effort. However, I ran into a significant challenge during my experiments: the system kept generating the same content … Read more
