One Prompt is NOT enough: Using AutoGen to code a Multi-Agent Postgres AI Tool

The video introduces AutoGen, a framework for building multi-agent applications that can solve problems more effectively than a single prompt. AutoGen allows prompts to work together to solve a problem, and the video provides examples of different configurations, such as math problem-solving and dynamic group chat retrieval. The video then demonstrates how to upgrade a Postgres data analytics agent to be multi-agent using Python AutoGen. The speaker explains the process of running the application using a combination of prompting techniques and the AI coding tool AER. They then separate out individual prompts for each agent in the multi-agent system and configure them to work cohesively. The system is successfully run, and the advantages and drawbacks of using an agentic framework like AutoGen are discussed. Overall, AutoGen allows for dividing and conquering tasks, enabling specialization and improving results. However, challenges such as determining the number of agents needed and debugging issues still exist.
