When Do We Need LLM-based AI Agents ?
Artificial intelligence (AI) has become an integral part of various aspects of our lives, often in the form of automation agents based on Large Language Models (LLMs). Advocates argue that these AI agents are the next step towards superior automation, acting as companions to increase our productivity and enrich our lives.
However, amidst this wave of enthusiasm for artificial intelligence (AI), questions persist regarding the reliability and practical applicability of these LLM-based autonomous agents.
LLMs are AI models that can understand and generate text similar to human text. Although they can mimic human reasoning, they lack the ability for critical and rigorous thinking, which raises doubts about their reliability. Despite these limitations, many people plan to use LLM-based agents for automation tasks. However, reliability and consistency are the foundations of automation, and LLM-based agents have yet to fully demonstrate these qualities.
An efficient automated system works flawlessly, performing the same operation with near-perfect reliability. However…
