Approaches for Managing Agent Memory
LangChain· 2025-12-18 17:53
Hey, this is Lance. I want to talk a bit about memory patterns for agents, focusing specifically on deep agents. Now, you might think about memory in two different ways.Explicit updating of agent memory and implicit updating of agent memory. Let me talk about the first one. So, explicit updating agent memory, you can see a great example of right here.This is the cloud code change log. This is recent yesterday. So cloud code recently removed this pound shortcut which you could previously use for updating mem ...

AI与教育的挑战与机遇 - AI擅长语法练习和自动纠错,但在文化情感、语境创造力、反思、共情和伦理沟通方面存在局限性 [13] - 行业普遍认为机器教授规则,而人类教授意义 [14] - 行业对AI在教学中的应用存在焦虑和兴奋两种情绪,但普遍缺乏共识 [15] - 行业认为现在是进行教学实验的最佳时机,可以通过文学、绘画、文化和电影等激发学生的创造性思维 [17][26] 传统教学的局限性 - 传统英语教学过于强调沟通理论、语法和记忆,存在局限性 [5][6] - 调查显示,传统教学模式适用于短期记忆和信息收集,但在长期记忆、深度语义处理和知识迁移方面不足 [8] - 行业普遍认为,课堂应鼓励学生进行哲学探讨,形成自己的观点,而非以教师为中心 [9][10] 人文教育的价值 - 人类拥有AI无法比拟的沉默欣赏和情感表达能力 [22] - 行业认为,学生通过艺术作品能够表达对战争和暴力的看法,并传递希望 [23][24] - 教师的独特之处在于对学生的个人关注,以及培养学生的思考、提问和想象能力 [28] 未来人才的需求 - 企业对人才的需求已经超越了传统的技能,需要更强的思辨能力和创新能力 [25][26]

Entrepreneurs often focus on action, valuing the hustle and determination that drive success. However, without strategic pauses, there's a risk of gaining momentum in the wrong direction. It's critical to pause, reflect and plan before moving forward. https://t.co/lSZpBY3tWG ...

Right after high school, something extraordinary happened. I received a full scholarship to embark on a gap year program. And for those of you who are not familiar, a gap year program essentially means taking a pause [clears throat] or a break from a traditional life.taking a break from classrooms, from schedules, from the traditional educational system to go travel or doing internship or working on something that you're passionate about. Usually people take this after high school and before they were embar ...
My Biggest Failure Became My Strength
Principles by Ray Dalio· 2025-11-14 14:11
difficulties and failures are great teachers. One principle that I've really learned is pain plus reflection equals progress. I've learned that there are lessons and and difficulties and failures are great teachers.>> What painful experiences have you been through that have led to your progress in life. I'd like to tell you about one that really stuck in my mind and changed me in a really beneficial way, but it was painful. 1980 and 81, long time ago, um I had calculated that American banks had lent to fore ...
聊聊 AI Agent 到底有多大创新?
自动驾驶之心· 2025-10-18 04:00
Core Insights - The article discusses the current limitations and challenges faced by AI agent technologies, particularly in comparison to traditional task bots, highlighting that the user experience has not significantly improved over the past decade [1][2]. Group 1: Planning Challenges - The planning phase is time-consuming, and as the number of tools increases, the accuracy of turbo models declines, necessitating the use of flagship models, which further increases latency [2][5]. - The quality of planning is insufficient; the workflows generated by models are less effective than those designed by humans, particularly in complex scenarios [2][8]. - The core issue with slow planning is the underestimation of the costs associated with tool discovery and parameter alignment, leading to a complex optimization problem when dynamically selecting tools [5][21]. Group 2: Reflection Issues - Reflection processes can lead to self-reinforcing cycles of inefficiency due to a lack of fine-grained computable signals and clear stopping conditions [3][15]. - Current models rely on weak feedback mechanisms, which can result in reinforcing incorrect assumptions rather than correcting errors [15][20]. - Proposed solutions include structured reflection processes that allow models to learn from mistakes and improve their performance through reinforcement learning [18][20]. Group 3: Engineering Solutions - Suggestions for improving planning quality include decomposing plans into milestones and local prompts, which can enhance stability and reusability [8][10]. - Implementing parallel execution of tasks can reduce overall processing time, with evidence showing a 20% reduction in time for non-dependent tool calls [6][21]. - The introduction of routing strategies can streamline task execution by directing simpler tasks to specialized executors, reserving complex planning for stronger reasoning models [6][21]. Group 4: Future Directions - The article emphasizes the importance of combining reinforcement learning with agent models to enhance their reasoning and execution capabilities, indicating a trend towards end-to-end learning approaches [20][21]. - The potential for AI agents to become valuable applications of large language models (LLMs) in real-world scenarios is highlighted, with ongoing improvements expected as models evolve [21].
Diving Deeper: How to Pay Attention Adequately | Lukas Mandl | TEDxCaledonian Intl School Youth
TEDx Talks· 2025-10-17 15:26
Human Relations & Communication - The core concept revolves around "resonance," defined as a vibration responding to another vibration, highlighting its importance in human relations [4] - The industry emphasizes the significance of caring for one another and contributing to the well-being of the community, as humans are essentially dependent on each other [2][3] - The industry advocates for providing space for reflection and a safe space for others to share thoughts and feelings, respecting their boundaries [8] - The industry highlights the importance of paying attention adequately, which includes being physically present and sharing both joy and sorrow with others [10][11] - The industry suggests that attention is a form of currency in human interaction, valuing and underlining the dignity of the other person [14] Ethical Considerations - The industry cautions against using the concept of providing space as a business instrument, such as only providing it for the wealthy, as it will miss out on precious things [9][12] - The industry warns against ignorance based on arrogance, which is considered harmful and dysfunctional for human communities [20] Personal Growth & Interpersonal Dynamics - The industry emphasizes the importance of observing the "shape" of the other person, whether they are sensitive like "butterfly skin" or resilient like "elephant skin," to tailor the outreach appropriately [8] - The industry encourages remaining curious not only about the wealthy, centers, and extraordinary but also about the less wealthy, peripheries, and ordinary [13] - The industry notes that providing space for others also opens oneself up, and while the outcome cannot be controlled, it is worth trying with confidence [23][24]
The True Value of 'X' | Priyal Lokhandwala | TEDxSGGSCC Studio
TEDx Talks· 2025-10-06 16:22
Core Idea - The speech explores the concept of 'X' as a metaphor for human potential and self-discovery, drawing parallels between mathematical unknowns and the undefined energy within individuals [1][3][5] - It emphasizes that individuals are born with potential and spend their lives defining their value, constantly evolving and splitting into multiple versions of themselves [5] - The speech advocates for reclaiming one's 'X' by understanding their homeostasis, or natural state of being, to discover their true value [10] Self-Discovery Framework - The framework involves four levels: self-awareness, self-realization, integration, and reflection [13] - Self-awareness is unlocked through activities like mirror work, travel, breath work, creative collaborations, and journaling [13] - Self-realization involves understanding one's value in different environments and consciously choosing where to expand or conserve energy [14] - Integration is the continuous journey of aligning one's actions with their realizations [17][18] - Reflection involves understanding one's impact on others and learning from recurring patterns in life [18][19] Impact and Purpose - The speech suggests that individuals often allow culture, family, and society to define their value, rather than authoring themselves [9] - It encourages individuals to multiply their energy, courage, love, and kindness, emphasizing that the human equation is incomplete without their unique 'X' [20]
