What Agent Builder is

0:00 By the end of this video, you're going to become a master at building agents on the agent builder. If you're familiar with voice flow, this is a very similar tool, but native to the open AI ecosystem, which makes it incredibly powerful. The biggest advantage of this builder over something like the GPTs is that we have far greater control. GPTs are built on single prompts, which for a lot of use cases can be perfectly fine. Although, when we start to look at production environments and more sophisticated use cases such as healthcare and legal, having more control with something like the agent builder is super critical.

0:46 Alongside the agent builder, OpenAI has also released the chat kit, which is a couple of tools that assist in creating these chatbased agents. One of the tools is called the playground, which is essentially a design tool for helping with the styling of the chatbased website widget. The other tool is a widget builder, which I think is one of the coolest features they've created for these agents. Essentially, it allows us to easily design custom widgets that can be integrated within the chat conversation itself.

1:09 This is used to more easily display data and graphics, helping create a far better user experience. I'll do a complete rundown on how to use both of these tools effectively later in the video. So, what can we actually build with it? Well, I'm going to cover this throughout the video, although currently the main use case will be for conversational chat AI agents. This can include e-commerce customer support agents, internal knowledgebased search agents, internal data analysis agents, AI travel advisor agents, etc.

1:33 There doesn't seem to be an integration with voice just yet. Although I don't think it's too far-fetched to say that in the future, this could be a great platform to build AI voice agents with. So, I'm first going to review some of the pre-made templates from OpenAI to give you a quick idea as to what can be built with the new platform. I'll then dive into reviewing each node on the canvas so you get a complete understanding of how to start building your own agents.

1:55 I'll then dive into building my own agents right on the canvas so you get a complete look at how to build these agents from scratch. And if this video isn't enough and you want to learn more about building AI agents, workflows, and automations, feel free to check out my completely free AI school community. We've got over 17,000 members with 50 plus AI agent templates and courses. I'll have it linked down below in the description. And if you are a business owner, I run an agency, Inflate AI, where we help businesses integrate AI systems like the ones that I'm going to be showcasing in this video.

2:41 And if you're looking for a custom system, feel free to reach out to us using the link in the description. This right here is the brand new agent builder dashboard. So, this is where we're going to be able to create all of our brand new agent workflows. So, this page right here is specifically on platform.openai.com/agentbuilder.
