There are three levels to agentic AI systems. First, single agents and workflows. These are excellent for automating single, well-defined tasks. For example, something like reading one incoming email and drafting a response. But they tend to break down as tasks get longer and more complex, which is level two, multi-agent systems. If you've ever used Cloud Code, you've used a multi-agent system. Cloud Code follows a very common design pattern for multi-agent systems. One, orchestrator agent, which can create multiple sub-agents to complete different parts of a larger goal. Each agent gets to maintain its own context and own a goal end-to-end. You can devote more tokens to a single task with this kind of setup. But as you introduce more large-language models, things get more unpredictable, which is why you need level three, evals. AI agents often look really great in demos but fail in production because you're not evaluating them the same way your customers use them. The best AI engineers think about and define evals at every step, from prototype to after release.
Summary
The video explains the three levels of agentic AI systems: single agents for simple tasks, multi-agent systems for complex workflows, and the importance of evals for real-world performance assessment.
Key Points
- Agentic AI systems have three levels: single agents, multi-agent systems, and evals.
- Single agents automate well-defined tasks like drafting email responses.
- Multi-agent systems, like Cloud Code, manage complex tasks with sub-agents.
- Each sub-agent maintains its own context and goal for efficiency.
- Evals are crucial for assessing AI performance in real-world scenarios.
- Effective AI engineers define evals from prototype to post-release.
