5 Free Courses on Reinforcement Learning

Image by Author Reinforcement learning (RL) is a subfield of machine learning where an agent learns to make decisions by interacting with its environment rather than relying solely on pre-existing data. It is an area that blends trial-and-error learning with feedback from actions to improve future performance. In this blog, we will explore 5 free courses that I believe are the best for beginners and professionals interested in entering the exciting field of self-learning robots. 1. Deep RL Course – […]

Introducing AutoGen Studio: A low-code interface for building multi-agent workflows

Multi-agent approaches to AI applications, where multiple foundation model-based agents collaborate to solve problems, are emerging as a powerful paradigm for accomplishing increasingly complex tasks. In September 2023, we released AutoGen – a flexible and open-source Python-based framework for defining, configuring, and composing AI agents to drive multi-agent applications. Today, we are introducing AutoGen Studio (version 0.1.0) – a low-code interface for rapidly building, testing, and sharing multi-agent solutions.
