Student builds autonomous agent for coursework: invoice extraction task, seeking project ideas
True-Friend6727 · reddit · 2026-10-22
A Reddit user is tackling a course assignment: build an autonomous AI agent that takes natural-language instructions, plans steps, uses browsers/files/APIs, handles failures, and verifies completion (example task: find an invoice, extract amount and due date, enter it into an internal system). With Python, RAG and basic agentic AI experience, they're asking for project ideas, repos and papers beyond basic tool-calling agents.
