Spring AI enables LLMs to call external tools for real-time data

Tool calling, also known as function calling, allows Large Language Models (LLMs) to access real-time data and external systems beyond their training cutoffs. This capability is crucial for building AI agents that can perform actions rather than just generating text. The process involves the LLM identifying a need for external information, requesting a specific tool and its parameters, the application executing that tool, and then returning the result to the LLM for a grounded, up-to-date response.
