First, here a generalized framework for an autonomous agent :

1. Initialize Goal : Define the objective for the AI.


2. Task Creation : The AI checks its memory for the last X tasks completed (if any), and then uses it’s objective, and the context of it’s recently completed tasks, to generate a list of new tasks.


3. Task Execution : The AI executes the ta

Our intuition is that this enables it to execute better on more complex and involved tasks, by using the planning steps essentially as a state tracking syst... See more

The two most important problems (at least how I am thinking about them currently), are:

Finding a rigorous scientific framework for how different agent skills, personalities, and instructions combine to be most capable for different problems (think of this as social management science for AI agents) .

Figuring out how you formally validate and verify... See more
