Harrison Chase, founder of LangChain, announced the launch of Managed Deep Agents, designed to be the easiest way to build, run, and deploy production-grade agents.
In his article, he reviewed the distinct evolutionary phases of agent building:
- Early Frameworks/Apps (Late 2022/Early 2023): Pioneered by tools like LangChain, ChatGPT, and AutoGPT, which first explored leveraging LLMs.
- Subsequent Evolution: The technology gradually matured towards engineering readiness.
Chase argues that managed agents represent the next major step in this domain.
