It's no sense trying to explain to people like this. Their eyes glaze over when they hear Autogen, agents, Crew ai, RAG, Opus... To them, generative AI is nothing more than the free version of chatgpt from a year ago, they've not kept up with the advancements, so they argue from a point in the distant past. The future will be hitting them upside the head soon enough and they will be the ones complaining that nobody told them what was comming.
Downvotes by a few uneducated people mean nothing. The tools are already there. You are free to use them and think about this for yourself. I'm not even talking about what will be here in the future. There is some really great stuff right now. Even if doing some very simple setup is too daunting for you, you can just watch people on youtube doing it to see what is available. People in this thread have literally already told you what to type into your search box.
In the early 90s, people exactly like you would go on and on about how stupid the computerbros were for thinking anyone would ever use this new stupid "intertnet" thing. You do you, it is totally fine if you think because a handful of uneducated, vocal people on the internet agree with you that technology has mysteriously frozen for the first time in history, then you must all be right.
They aren't trying to have a conversation, they're trying to convince themselves that the things they don't understand are bad and they're making the right choice by not using it. They'll be the boomers that needed millennials to send emails for them. Been through that so I just pretend I don't understand AI. I feel bad for the zoomers and genas that will be running AI and futilely trying to explain how easy it is. Its been a solid 150 years of extremely rapid invention and innovation of disruptive technology. But THIS is the one that actually won't be disruptive.
Please show me good code done with AI. I'm waiting.
Tell me about how when you used Llama 3 with Autogen locally, and how in the world you managed to pay a large company to use disproportionate amounts of energy for it. You clearly have no idea what is going on on the edge of this tech. You think that because you made an openai account that now you know everything that's going on. You sound like an AOL user in the 90 that thinks the internet has no real use.
You're just saying that you will only taste free garbage wine, and nobody can convince you that expensive wine could ever taste good. That's fine, you'll just be surprised when the good wine gets cheap enough for you to afford or free. Your unwillingness to taste it has nothing to do with what already exists. In this case, it's especially naive since you could just go watch videos of people using actually good wine.
There are endless examples if you just search the things we've been mentioning. Here is a video that just came out today about a new project for making front ends called OpenUI.
No problem. Here is a fairly short video showing the Praison system of agents and tools. He shows how to do it locally as well, so there is no need to even use an openai api or any other remote model. This means it is simple to do the whole thing even with uncensored models or any other fine-tuned model for special use cases.

Wonderfully said, this is a very good point.
