Build a personal shopping assistant in less than 5 minutes with the new @weaviate.bsky.social Query Agent! 👩🍳 To get started, try out the recipe! You’ll end up building an e-commerce assistant agent: colab.research.google.com/github/weavi...
There are valid concerns when it comes to how we use agents today and how we should prepare to use them in future. 1️⃣ AI agents as ‘research assistants’, 2️⃣ Agentic workflows, some involving human-in-the-loop systems. 3️⃣ Safety nets, such as ‘undo’.

Agents can seem a bit like wizardry, so I've been working on an intro 💚 🧙 The way I like to explain it is by comparing most LLMs in agentic AI applications today to a wizard with a spell book (tools). It's been granted instructions for bunch of spells 🪄 Read on here: weaviate.io/blog/ai-agents
