Redefining Job Execution with AI Agents AI agents are reshaping how jobs are performed by offering tools that execute complex, goal-directed tasks. Unlike static algorithms, these agents combine multi-step planning with software tools to handle entire workflows across various sectors, including education, law, finance, and logistics. Their integration is no longer theoretical—workers are already applying…
In this tutorial, we’ll implement content moderation guardrails for Mistral agents to ensure safe and policy-compliant interactions. By using Mistral’s moderation APIs, we’ll validate both the user input and the agent’s response against categories like financial advice, self-harm, PII, and more. This helps prevent harmful or inappropriate content from being generated or processed — a…
Or: Why “Can we turn off generation” might be the smartest question in generative AI Not long ago, I found myself in a meeting with technical leaders from a large enterprise. We were discussing Parlant as a solution for building fluent yet tightly controlled conversational agents. The conversation was going well—until someone asked a question…
In this tutorial, we walk you through the design and implementation of a custom agent framework built on PyTorch and key Python tooling, ranging from web intelligence and data science modules to advanced code generators. We’ll learn how to wrap core functionalities in monitored CustomTool classes, orchestrate multiple agents with tailored system prompts, and define…
The development and deployment of advanced AI systems increasingly depend on flexible, robust orchestration layers that bridge diverse models, tools, and resources. IBM’s MCP Gateway addresses this need by providing a FastAPI-based gateway for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), offering a unified interface to scale and manage the modern AI toolchain. This article explores MCP…
In this tutorial, we demonstrate how to use the UAgents framework to build a lightweight, event-driven AI agent architecture on top of Google’s Gemini API. We’ll start by applying nest_asyncio to enable nested event loops, then configure your Gemini API key and instantiate the GenAI client. Next, we’ll define our communication contracts, Question and Answer…
The Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol is a new standard by Google that enables AI agents—regardless of their underlying framework or developer—to communicate and collaborate seamlessly. It works by using standardized messages, agent cards (which describe what an agent can do), and task-based execution, allowing agents to interact via HTTP without custom integration logic. A2A makes it…
The Importance of Symbolic Reasoning in World Modeling Understanding how the world works is key to creating AI agents that can adapt to complex situations. While neural network-based models, such as Dreamer, offer flexibility, they require massive amounts of data to learn effectively, far more than humans typically do. On the other hand, newer methods…
In this tutorial, we’ll build a powerful and interactive Streamlit application that brings together the capabilities of LangChain, the Google Gemini API, and a suite of advanced tools to create a smart AI assistant. Using Streamlit’s intuitive interface, we’ll create a chat-based system that can search the web, fetch Wikipedia content, perform calculations, remember key…
Introduction AI agents are increasingly moving from pure backend automators to visible, collaborative elements within modern applications. However, making agents genuinely interactive—capable of both responding to users and proactively guiding workflows—has long been an engineering headache. Each team ends up building custom communication channels, event handling, and state management, all for similar interaction needs. The…
