Auto-GPT is an "AI agent" that, given a goal in natural language,
will attempt to achieve it by breaking it into sub-tasks and using
the internet and other tools in an automatic loop.[1] It uses
OpenAI's GPT-4 or GPT-3.5 APIs,[2] and is among the first examples
of an application using GPT-4 to perform autonomous tasks.[3]

What is Auto-GPT and why does it matter?

Silicon Valley’s quest to automate everything is unceasing, which
explains its latest obsession: Auto-GPT.
<br>
<br>
In essence, Auto-GPT uses the versatility of OpenAI’s latest AI
models to interact with software and services online, allowing it
to “autonomously” perform tasks like X and Y. But as we are
learning with large language models, this capability seems to be
as wide as an ocean but as deep as a puddle.
<br>
<br>
Auto-GPT — which you might’ve seen blowing up on social media
recently — is an open source app created by game developer Toran
Bruce Richards that uses OpenAI’s text-generating models, mainly
GPT-3.5 and GPT-4, to act “autonomously.”
<br>
<br>
There’s no magic in that autonomy. Auto-GPT simply handles
follow-ups to an initial prompt of OpenAI’s models, both asking
and answering them until a task is complete.
<br>
<br>
Auto-GPT, basically, is GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 paired with a companion
bot that instructs GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 what to do. A user tells
Auto-GPT what their goal is and the bot, in turn, uses GPT-3.5 and
GPT-4 and several programs to carry out every step needed to
achieve whatever goal they’ve set.
<br>
<br>
What makes Auto-GPT reasonably capable is its ability to interact
with apps, software and services both online and local, like web
browsers and word processors. For example, given a prompt like
“help me grow my flower business,” Auto-GPT can develop a somewhat
plausible advertising strategy and build a basic website.
<br>
<br>
#AutoGPT is the new disruptive kid on the block- It can apply
#ChatGPT's reasoning to broader, more intricate issues requiring
planning & multiple steps.
<br>
<br>
Still early but very impressive with many health and
biomedicine applications.

As Joe Koen, a software developer who’s experimented with
Auto-GPT, explained to TechCrunch via email, Auto-GPT essentially
automates multi-step projects that would’ve required
back-and-forth prompting with a chatbot-oriented AI model like,
say, OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
<br>
<br>
“Auto-GPT defines an agent that communicates with OpenAI’s API,”
Koen said. “This agent’s objective is to carry out a variety of
commands that the AI generates in response to the agent’s
requests. The user is prompted for input to specify the AI’s role
and objectives prior to the agent starting to carry out commands.”
<br>
<br>
In a terminal, users describe the Auto-GPT agent’s name, role and
objective and specify up to five ways to achieve that objective.
For example:
<br>
<br>
Name: Smartphone-GPT
<br>
Role: An AI designed to find the best smartphone
<br>
Objective: Find the best smartphones on the market
<br>
Goal 1: Do market research for different smartphones on the
market today
<br>
Goal 2: Get the top five smartphones and list their pros and
cons
<br>
<br>
Behind the scenes, Auto-GPT relies on features like memory
management to execute tasks, along with GPT-4 and GPT-3.5 for text
generation, file storage and summarization.
<br>
<br>
Auto-GPT can also be hooked up to speech synthesizers, like
ElevenLabs’, so that it can “place” phone calls, for example.
<br>
<br>
Auto-GPT is publicly available on GitHub, but it does require some
setup and know-how to get up and running. To use it, Auto-GPT has
to be installed in a development environment like Docker, and it
must be registered with an API key from OpenAI — which requires a
paid OpenAI account.
<br>
<br>
It might be worth it — although the jury’s out on that. Early
adopters have used Auto-GPT to take on the sorts of mundane tasks
better delegated to a bot. For example, Auto-GPT can field items
like debugging code and writing an email or more advanced things,
like creating a business plan for a new startup.
<br>
<br>
“If Auto-GPT encounters any obstacles or inability to finish the
task, it’ll develop new prompts to help it navigate the situation
and determine the appropriate next steps,” Adnan Masood, the chief
architect at UST, a tech consultancy firm, told TechCrunch in an
email. “Large language models excel at generating human-like
responses, yet rely on user prompts and interactions to deliver
desired outcomes. In contrast, Auto-GPT leverages the advanced
capabilities of OpenAI’s API to operate independently without user
intervention.”
<br>
<br>
In recent weeks, new apps have emerged to make Auto-GPT even
easier to use, like AgentGPT and GodMode, which provide a simple
interface where users can input what they want to accomplish
directly on a browser page. Note that, like Agent-GPT, both
require an API key from OpenAI to unlock their full capabilities.
<br>
<br>
Like any powerful tool, however, Auto-GPT has its limitations —
and risks.
<br>
<br>
AutoGPT just exceeded PyTorch itself in GitHub stars (74k vs
65k). I see AutoGPT as a fun experiment, as the authors point out
too. But nothing more. Prototypes are not meant to be
production-ready. Don't let media fool you – most of the "cool
demos" are heavily cherry-picked: 🧵 pic.twitter.com/I44H7BkCqr

<br>
<br>
Depending on what objective the tool’s provided, Auto-GPT can
behave in very… unexpected ways. One Reddit user claims that,
given a budget of $100 to spend within a server instance, Auto-GPT
made a wiki page on cats, exploited a flaw in the instance to gain
admin-level access and took over the Python environment in which
it was running — and then “killed” itself.
<br>
<br>
There’s also ChaosGPT, a modified version of Auto-GPT tasked with
goals like “destroy humanity” and “establish global dominance.”
Unsurprisingly, ChaosGPT hasn’t come close to bringing about the
robot apocalypse — but it has tweeted rather unflatteringly about
humankind.
<br>
<br>
Arguably more dangerous than Auto-GPT attempting to “destroy
humanity” are the unanticipated problems that can crop up in
otherwise perfectly normal scenarios, though. Because it’s built
on OpenAI’s language models — models that, like all language
models, are prone to inaccuracies — it can make errors.
<br>
<br>
That’s not the only problem. After successfully completing a task,
Auto-GPT usually doesn’t recall how to perform it for later use,
and — even when it does — it often won’t remember to use the
program. Auto-GPT also struggles to effectively break complex
tasks into simpler sub-tasks and has trouble understanding how
different goals overlap.
<br>
<br>
“Auto-GPT illustrates the power and unknown risks of generative
AI,” Clara Shih, the CEO of Salesforce’s Service Cloud and an
Auto-GPT enthusiast, said via email. “For enterprises, it is
especially important to include a human in the loop approach when
developing and using generative AI technologies like Auto-GPT.”
