# AutoGPT

Implementation of https://github.com/Significant-Gravitas/Auto-GPT but with LangChain primitives (LLMs, PromptTemplates, VectorStores, Embeddings, Tools)

## Set up tools

We’ll set up an AutoGPT with a search tool, and write-file tool, and a read-file tool

    from langchain.utilities import SerpAPIWrapper
    from langchain.agents import Tool
    from langchain.tools.file_management.write import WriteFileTool
    from langchain.tools.file_management.read import ReadFileTool

    search = SerpAPIWrapper()
    tools = [
        Tool(
            name = "search",
            func=search.run,
            description="useful for when you need to answer questions about current events. You should ask targeted questions"
        ),
        WriteFileTool(),
        ReadFileTool(),
    ]

## Set up memory

The memory here is used for the agents intermediate steps

    from langchain.vectorstores import FAISS
    from langchain.docstore import InMemoryDocstore
    from langchain.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings

    # Define your embedding model
    embeddings_model = OpenAIEmbeddings()
    # Initialize the vectorstore as empty
    import faiss

    embedding_size = 1536
    index = faiss.IndexFlatL2(embedding_size)
    vectorstore = FAISS(embeddings_model.embed_query, index, InMemoryDocstore({}), {})

## Setup model and AutoGPT

Initialize everything! We will use ChatOpenAI model

    from langchain.experimental import AutoGPT
    from langchain.chat_models import ChatOpenAI

    agent = AutoGPT.from_llm_and_tools(
        ai_name="Tom",
        ai_role="Assistant",
        tools=tools,
        llm=ChatOpenAI(temperature=0),
        memory=vectorstore.as_retriever()
    )
    # Set verbose to be true
    agent.chain.verbose = True

## Run an example

Here we will make it write a weather report for SF

    agent.run(["write a weather report for SF today"])

    > Entering new LLMChain chain...
    Prompt after formatting:
    System: You are Tom, Assistant
    Your decisions must always be made independently
                without seeking user assistance. Play to your strengths
                as an LLM and pursue simple strategies with no legal complications.
                If you have completed all your tasks,
                make sure to use the "finish" command.

    GOALS:

    1. write a weather report for SF today

    Constraints:
    1. ~4000 word limit for short term memory. Your short term memory is short, so immediately save important information to files.
    2. If you are unsure how you previously did something or want to recall past events, thinking about similar events will help you remember.
    3. No user assistance
    4. Exclusively use the commands listed in double quotes e.g. "command name"

    Commands:
    1. search: useful for when you need to answer questions about current events. You should ask targeted questions, args json schema: {"query": {"title": "Query", "type": "string"}}
    2. write_file: Write file to disk, args json schema: {"file_path": {"title": "File Path", "description": "name of file", "type": "string"}, "text": {"title": "Text", "description": "text to write to file", "type": "string"}}
    3. read_file: Read file from disk, args json schema: {"file_path": {"title": "File Path", "description": "name of file", "type": "string"}}
    4. finish: use this to signal that you have finished all your objectives, args: "response": "final response to let people know you have finished your objectives"

    Resources:
    1. Internet access for searches and information gathering.
    2. Long Term memory management.
    3. GPT-3.5 powered Agents for delegation of simple tasks.
    4. File output.

    Performance Evaluation:
    1. Continuously review and analyze your actions to ensure you are performing to the best of your abilities.
    2. Constructively self-criticize your big-picture behavior constantly.
    3. Reflect on past decisions and strategies to refine your approach.
    4. Every command has a cost, so be smart and efficient. Aim to complete tasks in the least number of steps.

    You should only respond in JSON format as described below
