Multi-agent architectures are the FUTURE Here are 6 different types: 𝟭. 𝗛𝗶𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 (𝗩𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹) 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 A supervisor agent orchestrates multiple specialized agents. 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦: • One agent retrieves information from internal data sources • Another agent specializes in public information from web searches • A third agent specializes in retrieving information from personal accounts (email, chat) 𝟮. 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻-𝗶𝗻-𝘁𝗵𝗲-𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗽 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 Incorporates human verification before proceeding to next actions, used when handling sensitive information. 𝟯/𝟱. 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 (𝗛𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹) 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 Agents communicate directly with one another in a many-to-many fashion. Forms a decentralized network without strict hierarchical structure. 𝟰. 𝗦𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 Agents process tasks in sequence, where one agent's output becomes input for the next. 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦: Three sequential agents where: • First query agent retrieves information from vector search • Second query agent retrieves additional information from web search based on first agent's findings • Final generation agent creates a response using information from both query agents 𝟱. 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 Includes agents dedicated to transforming data. 𝘌𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦: • A transformation agent that enriches data at insert-time or transforms existing collections There are also some other patterns that can be combined with these architectures: • 𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗽 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻: Iterative cycles for continuous improvement • 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻: Multiple agents working simultaneously on different parts of a task • 𝗥𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻: A central router determining which agents to invoke • 𝗔𝗴𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿/𝘀𝘆𝗻𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻: Collecting and synthesizing outputs from multiple agents Check out this ebook for more info: weaviate.io/ebooks/agentic-a…
