Part 4/12:
This chain of thought approach bridges the gap between simple question-answering models and truly thinking AI systems. Instead of just generating responses, models now simulate a logical process akin to human reasoning, approaching problems step-by-step. This progression hints at the future where AI systems don't just respond but plan, reason, and decide—all hallmarks of advanced cognition.
Building Thinking Agents: From Simple Chatbots to Autonomous Minds
The speaker emphasizes that the leap from current AI tools to fully autonomous, thinking agents involves layering multiple capabilities:
Memory: Storing short-term and long-term information
Planning: Creating strategies to achieve goals
Decision-Making: Choosing actions based on context
