Hugging Face Unveils Smolagents

Hugging Face has released Smolagents, a minimalist open-source framework that allows developers to build powerful AI agents quickly using just three lines of Python code. 

Here's what you need to know: 

• It leverages Hugging Face's extensive library of pre-trained models, allowing the creation of agents capable of understanding commands, connecting to external data sources, and dynamically generating and executing code. 

• Smolagents is lightweight, containing only about 1,000 lines of code. This makes it simple to use while still handling the complexity of building AI agents. 

• Its standout feature, CodeAgent, allows the AI to write Python code directly rather than using traditional toolcalling methods, reducing steps by 30%. 

• This framework is compatible with multiple models, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta's Llama, and Qwen, giving developers access to a broad range of tools.      

Can LLMs write better code if you keep asking them to “write better code”?

This article looks at whether this concept could apply to large language model-generated code - whether asking an LLM to 'make code better' can result in improvements. It appears that asking an LLM to 'write code better' results in better code compared to direct prompting (at least with Claude 3.5 Sonnet).

Bare Necessities of Data Management

I think there is a list of core practices that should be implemented early on, before data collection begins, in order for your project to be successful. This blog post will review those practices…
