Understanding Autonomous Agents
Unlike standard chatbots, autonomous agents like AutoGPT operate on a loop: they think, plan, and execute actions (like searching the web or writing code) until a goal is met.
Setting up AutoGPT
Clone the repository, configure your .env file with your OpenAI or local model API keys, and run the startup script.
Best Practices for Prompting Agents
Agents need clear, constrained goals. Instead of "build a website", use "research top 5 open source tools, summarize them, and write an HTML file containing the results."
