About This Workshop
In recent months, the field of AI Agentics has gained significant traction, showcasing the remarkable potential of AI to perform advanced logical reasoning and execute complex, multi-step tasks autonomously. AI agents represent a transformative leap in artificial intelligence, enabling systems to not only process information but also make decisions, interact with diverse data sources, and integrate with external tools to achieve sophisticated outcomes. This workshop is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive, hands-on understanding of building AI agents, empowering them to harness these cutting-edge capabilities for real-world applications.
The session will guide attendees through the process of creating a fully functional AI agent using Python and the LangChain framework. Through a practical example, we will demonstrate how an AI agent can seamlessly interact with relational data and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) data stored in an Oracle Database 23ai. Additionally, participants will learn how to extend the agent's functionality by integrating external tools, such as sending emails or generating PDFs, showcasing the versatility of AI agents in automating diverse workflows.

Workshop Highlights:
Environment Setup and Dependencies: Learn how to configure the necessary development environment, including installing required libraries and tools to ensure a smooth agent-building process.

Creating Custom Tools: Discover how to design and implement custom tools that enable the AI agent to perform specialized tasks, such as interacting with APIs or processing specific data formats.

Designing Effective Prompt Templates: Master the art of crafting prompt templates that guide the AI agent’s behavior, ensuring accurate and contextually relevant responses.

Initializing and Running the Agent: Gain hands-on experience in setting up and deploying the AI agent, observing how it processes inputs and executes tasks in real time.

Leveraging Context Memory: Explore the role of context memory in enabling the agent to maintain continuity and make informed decisions based on prior interactions.

Throughout this workshop, we'll explore:

1. Setting up the environment and dependencies
2. Creating custom tools for our agent
3. Designing effective prompt templates
4. Initializing and running the agent
