What is an AI agent anyway?

In recent years, "generative AI" as typified by ChatGPT has become widely popular, but the next hot trend is emerging as AI Agent They are called "the

Differences from Generative AI

Generative AI generates text and images in response to user input prompts (instructions).

It is a "passive tool," so to speak.

AI agents, on the other hand, areMore "active"

AI agents are,If you tell them only the goal (objective), they will think on their own to complete the task and output the final product.This is a characteristic of the

What AI Agents Can Do

If you only tell them the goal (objective)...

  • Gathering Information
  • Think about the composition
  • Optimization according to requirements
  • Content output

Acting like a “super upstream assistant” that understands the user's intentions

This is the AI agent.

"What does this person want to do in the end?" The system will work backwards from the "what does this person want to do in the end" to the "what does this person want to do in the end".

Four features of the AI agent Skywork

Skyworkis a tool with some of the best features of these AI agents.

Skywork Features (1): Almighty

Skywork is a tool that allows you to create "documents + slides + spreadsheets" all at once.

Skywork Feature Description

Skywork alone supports the following formats

  • Document Generation
  • Slide creation
  • Spreadsheet Creation
  • Web page generation
  • podcast generation
  • general(Flexible support for formats other than those listed above)

For all text, slides, and spreadsheetsDeep Research RespondsThe company is doing so.

The bar graph below shows the results of the GAIA benchmark, which evaluates the performance of AI agents.

The three tools covered are

  • Manus(GREEN)
  • OpenAI (Deep Research)(WHITE)

What is the GAIA Benchmark?

This benchmark measures the "thinking ability" and "information processing ability" of research support AI in stages. The higher the level, the more complex and advanced thinking is required.

Akanon

The above chart represents the following

🔵 Level 1 (basic research, summary, etc.)

  • Skywork92.5%
  • Manus86.5%
  • OpenAI (Deep Research)74.3%

    → Skywork is the highest, indicating that it has superior basic processing capabilities.

🔵 Level 2 (e.g., logical reasoning and factor analysis)

  • Skywork83.7%
  • Manus70.1%
  • OpenAI (Deep Research)69.1%

    → Skywork has a big lead. It also shows strength in medium thinking tasks.

🔵 Level 3 (advanced abstract thinking and judgment)

  • Skywork57.7%
  • Manus57.7%
  • OpenAI (Deep Research)47.6%

    → Skywork and Manus are comparable; OpenAI is slightly inferior.

That is, in research and education,Skywork is a very strong choice for AI agents with excellent thought support and compositional skillsIt can be said that

Skywork Features (3): Simple to use

Detailed prompts are not required!

Rough instructions such as, "Prepare a 90-minute lecture material for university students," are acceptable.

An AI agent that is designed to be simple and very easy to use, yet performs extremely well!

Akanon

It's a tool that makes you say, "I wanted something like this."

Try to actually create slides

Akanon

Let's review the actual creation of the slides!

Themes should be

I was asked to give a lecture on the topic of research design to undergraduates."

I have never taken a course on this subject before and have no available material at hand.

It would take too long to build from scratch.

Skywork is useful in these situations.

Let's get the lecture slides knocked out as soon as possible.

Flow to output

The output is completed in the following six steps

All you must do is input "what you want to do". The AI will do the rest automatically.

STEP
Enter what you want to do and select the format of the output(User)

First, specify what you want to achieve and the output format (slide, document, spreadsheet, etc.).

Let's take a look at some examples of utilization.

Document Generation

instruction: How effective is moderate jogging twice a week (30 minutes per session) in the general adult population aged 18 years and older in preventing depression based on self-administered depressive symptom scores (e.g., PHQ-9)? (Focus on randomized controlled trials, including observational studies)

It's very easy to see.

In the future, there will be an updated "Elusive by Information" feature that will link reference numbers to text.

(Focus on randomized controlled trials, including observational studies)

Both have a total of 10 informative slides.

In the future, there will be an update to the "Elusive by Information" feature that will allow the source of quotes in text and images to be clearly indicated.

Spreadsheet generation

Instructions: Create a spreadsheet to organize your real-time PCR (qPCR) experimental data. Divide the data into multiple sheets (tabs) and provide the necessary columns for each sheet. Please make sure that the structure is easy for the experimenter to record and use for analysis. Please use a blank template format and include Excel functions.

It's amazing how these checklist items come up automatically...

Functions are also built in, and the values you enter are reflected in the graphs.

The spreadsheet may need to be reorganized, as each researcher will have a different configuration that is easy to use.
