Build AI agents using function calling for web search and code execution

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

This tutorial demonstrates how to build AI agents capable of executing code, searching the web, and calling APIs by leveraging function calling. The process involves defining tools, such as a web search tool using DuckDuckGo and a Python execution tool, which LLMs can invoke by outputting structured JSON. This enables LLMs to move beyond text generation and perform actions in the real world. AI

IMPACT Enables developers to build more capable AI agents that can interact with external tools and services.
