AI Agents and Function Calling Intro & Quick Start
Building an AI Agent from Scratch Using Plain JavaScript
In this video, I'll guide you through the process of creating an AI agent from scratch using plain JavaScript. We'll avoid complex frameworks and keep things simple by using basic concepts like functions and loops. Starting with OpenAI's playground to understand function calling, we'll build an example to get weather information and enhance it to make the AI act more like an agent. Then, I'll show you a project that performs intelligent code search, using tools to interact with a code base. This tutorial aims to give you a foundational understanding of how simple loops and functions can create effective AI agents. All the code for th...

Would you please make a video about building with Gemini 2.0 multimodal real time API (Gemini 2.0 Flash Exp). I have a plumbing business and i wanted to build an app that will allow my customers to stream live, a video of their plumbing issues (powered by Gemini 3.0 flash exp) so that the API can analyze the issue and advice accordingly. then i want it to have some function calling to access my inventory database to inform the customer that we have a solution for their plumbing issue in stock, and the price of it as well. is this possible or my dream is too wild? Thank you. @Thabiso in South Africa
Yeah that sounds doable. I don't know how capable a plumber the AI is though. It might get things wrong. I'd try it out with your own computer on a few test cases to see how it does. Point the webcam at the thing and ask for advice to validate that it's actually accurate enough to save you time. Would be curious if you end up doing that.
Solid content, relevant and concise. Keep it coming.
Great Video, thanks!
Notion, arc, apple notes and Raycast notes. I never know what to use... tbh I am thinking to abandon my pad and phone and work exclusively from the Laptop just for Raycast

Bro you get one more subscriber ❤. My brother is student in Australia in Rmit Melbourne. Love from india 🇮🇳 ❤
Cheers, thanks Akash
Such good advice! Taking action on something important (that you really want to accomplish) but not urgent (no external deadline exists) is what needs to happen! The advice to start small and ADD more is exactly right. The path to your goal is not one giant leap but usually a series of steps. Great video!
Fun, Ian! I like the pace, content, and those comments you emphasized with quick and funny text on the screen! Also the surprise bit at the end.
❤🎉
This video is on point. Great recommendation from RUclips this time
Hi Lan, I hope you're doing well! I wanted to check if you’re looking for a video editor and thumbnail designer for your RUclips channel. I'd love to help enhance your content and visuals. Let me know if you're interested! Best regards,
is there any window manager that scriptable with javascript or golang on linux?
