Senior Devs @ 11am with Liz - NATS: Agent-Writing-Agent

Wednesday
CyberSecurity @ 11am
We'll explore the implications of the boundary between the outside world and your agent swarms
Thursday
Senior Devs @ 11am with Liz: Build an actor-critic agent
We'll build an actor-critic agent attached to a NATS server you will run locally. This agent will take specs of whatever length you want and produce a single python script, then a critic will review the script. All of this will happen over NATS. The goal is to get something you can ship out the door.
Prompt Engineering @ 5pm with Liz - Tools
In this session we'll look at the software patterns associated with Tool Usage and how we can accomplish them using different means. This technology has gone through no less than 4 iterations in the past 8 months, so we'll quickly review them all so you have an understanding of why this landscape is so broken, then provide example code for you to begin to implement your own tools.
