Conversation Agent
Conversation Agent#
This notebook walks through using an agent optimized for conversation. Other agents are often optimized for using tools to figure out the best response, which is not ideal in a conversational setting where you may want the agent to be able to chat with the user as well.
This is accomplished with a specific type of agent (conversational-react-description) which expects to be used with a memory component.
