LangGraph Assistants: Building Configurable AI Agents
LangChain· 2025-07-02 14:45
Imagine you've built a perfect agent for your blog writing team. Now your social media team wants to use it but they need different prompts, different models and different tools. But modifying your underlying code for each use case is not only time consuming but also prone to errors.This creates two distinct problems. Developers get stuck in constant code changing cycles that slow down iteration while business teams can't experiment without engineering support. That's where Lang graph assistants come in.Tod ...

Events are the Wrong Abstraction for Your AI Agents - Mason Egger, Temporal.io
AI Engineer· 2025-06-27 09:35
Core Argument - The presentation argues that event-driven architecture (EDA), while seemingly loosely coupled at runtime, is tightly coupled at design time, leading to complexities and challenges in AI agent development [21][22] - It proposes a shift in focus from events to durable execution as the core of AI agent architecture, which simplifies development and handles failures more effectively [26][27] Problems with Event-Driven Architecture - EDA sacrifices clear APIs, as events lack the documentation and structure of traditional APIs [15] - Business logic becomes fragmented and scattered across multiple services, making debugging and understanding the system more difficult [16] - Services become ad hoc state machines, leading to potential race conditions and difficult-to-debug issues [18][19] - EDA can lead to reluctance to iterate on architecture due to fear of breaking existing functionality [25] Durable Execution as a Solution - Durable execution is presented as a crash-proof execution environment that automatically preserves application state, virtualizes execution, and is not limited by time or hardware [27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] - It allows developers to focus on business logic rather than managing events and queues [38] - Temporal provides durable execution as an open-source, MIT-licensed product with SDKs for multiple programming languages [38][39] - Durable execution abstracts away the complexities of events into the software layer [40][43] Temporal's Offering - Temporal's durable execution system offers automatic retries for failures, such as LLM downtime or rate limits [36] - It supports polyglot programming, allowing functions written in different languages to be called seamlessly [39] - Temporal is available for demonstration and further discussion at the company's booth and Slack channel [44][45]

Building AI Agents that actually automate Knowledge Work - Jerry Liu, LlamaIndex
AI Engineer· 2025-06-24 00:16
Agents are all the rage in 2025, and every single b2b SaaS startup/incumbent promises AI agents that can "automate work" in some way. But how do you actually build this? The answer is two fold: 1. really really good tools 2. carefully tailored agent reasoning over these tools that range from assistant-to-automation based UXs. The main goal of this talk is to a practical overview of agent architectures that can automate real-world work, with a focus on document-centric tasks. Learn the core building blocks o ...

Factory Co-Founder & CTO on Building Reliable AI Agents | LangChain Interrupt
LangChain· 2025-06-18 18:40
Core Idea - Factory believes software development is transitioning to agent-driven from human-driven [1] - To achieve significant productivity gains (5-20x), a shift from collaborating with AI to delegating tasks entirely to AI is needed [3] - Factory is building a platform for managing and scaling AI agents, integrating various engineering systems [3][4][5] Agentic System Characteristics - Agentic systems require planning to decide future actions [11] - Decision-making is crucial for agents to make calls based on the existing state [13][14] - Environmental grounding is necessary for agents to interact with and adapt to the external environment [14] Human-AI Collaboration - Humans will remain in software development, focusing on the outer loop (reasoning, requirements) [15][16] - Agents will handle the inner loop (coding, testing, code review) [17] - AI UX should blend delegation with control for situations where agents cannot complete tasks [17] Agent Reliability - Clear planning and boundaries are essential for reliable agents [32] - Subtask decomposition, model predictive control, and explicit plan templating can improve planning [19][20] - Control over the tools agents use is the most important differentiator in agent reliability [28] Environmental Interaction - New AI computer interfaces are needed for agents to interact with the world [28] - Processing information from the environment is crucial for complex systems [29][30] - Agents need to ground themselves in the environment to perform full software development work [32] Call to Action - Factory encourages teams not delegating at least 50% of engineering tasks to AI agents to engage with them [34]
