AutoGen is a framework that enables development of LLM applications using multiple agents that can converse with each other to solve tasks. AutoGen agents are customizable, conversable, and seamlessly allow human participation. They can operate in various modes that employ combinations of LLMs, human inputs, and tools.
* AutoGen enables building next-gen LLM applications based on **multi-agent conversations** with minimal effort. It simplifies the orchestration, automation and optimization of a complex LLM workflow. It maximizes the performance of LLM models and overcome their weaknesses.
* It supports **diverse conversation patterns** for complex workflows. With customizable and conversable agents, developers can use AutoGen to build a wide range of conversation patterns concerning conversation autonomy,
* It provides a collection of working systems with different complexities. These systems span a **wide range of applications** from various domains and complexities. They demonstrate how AutoGen can easily support different conversation patterns.
* AutoGen provides a drop-in replacement of `openai.Completion` or `openai.ChatCompletion` as an **enhanced inference API**. It allows easy performance tuning, utilities like API unification & caching, and advanced usage patterns, such as error handling, multi-config inference, context programming etc.
Autogen enables the next-gen LLM applications with a generic multi-agent conversation framework. It offers customizable and conversable agents which integrate LLMs, tools and human.
By automating chat among multiple capable agents, one can easily make them collectively perform tasks autonomously or with human feedback, including tasks that require using tools via code. For [example](https://github.com/microsoft/autogen/blob/main/test/twoagent.py),
Autogen also helps maximize the utility out of the expensive LLMs such as ChatGPT and GPT-4. It offers a drop-in replacement of `openai.Completion` or `openai.ChatCompletion` with powerful functionalites like tuning, caching, error handling, templating. For example, you can optimize generations by LLM with your own tuning data, success metrics and budgets.
