From Prompting To Infrastructure

Quotes from the episode

An AI agent is an LLM that runs tools in a loop to achieve a goal.
-Teddy quoting Simon Willison’s definition

The process of having a task, write a report, use a tool, web search, and do it over and over again until you feel like you’ve gotten the full sort of spectrum of things—that I think is what an agent really is.
-Teddy Svoronos

These LLMs are now becoming like this intermediary between me and the actual content. And so I’m optimizing in a different way than I used to.
-Teddy Svoronos

I think there’s an analogy with these tools that I’ve been thinking of as cognitive debt, which is that as you offload to them, there are things that they’ll do that you won’t quite understand.
-Teddy Svoronos
