Thanks Paul for sharing your instructive insights on how to build your own enterprise AI Agents with IBM WatsonX!

Paul Couvert1 year ago

Thank you for this opportunity! Really honored to be able to show how powerful IBM models and solutions are, even locally.

@IBM_France Thanks for sharing @itsPaulAi

@IBM_France My pleasure, Vishal. Thanks for watching!

@IBM_France This is gold. Local, free, and open source. Time to build my agent this weekend!

Paul Couvert1 year ago

@IBM_France Let me know how it goes! Happy to help if needed 👌

Robert Youssef1 year ago

@IBM_France local and free sounds great, but those small models can only do so much. don't expect miracles. make sure you have a clear task for your agent to tackle or it might just be another fancy toolbox gathering dust.

Paul Couvert1 year ago

@IBM_France Yeah, the trick is not to give them too many tools when building your agent. If you limit to 3/4 tools and well-defined tasks it already works wonders given the size of the model.

Awa K. Penn1 year ago

@IBM_France This is a good one. Gonna try this🔥

Paul Couvert1 year ago

@IBM_France Lets go, Awa! You'll see there's something magical about running an agent directly on your laptop.

LM Studio is the most popular way to run open-source LLMs on your own hardware. Your Hermes Agent now runs natively on LM Studio: auto-discovering your models, loading them on demand with the right context size, and using the right reasoning level for each model.
