Abstract: 
Large AI Models demonstrate promising capabilities and open numerous possibilities for innovative applications. What are future AI applications like and how do we empower every developer to build them? AutoGen is a pioneering attempt to address this question as a generic multi-agent conversation framework. This talk will explore the core functionalities and key concepts of AutoGen, explain how it can be used to simplify and unify the implementation of complex AI workflows with integration of models, tools, and human inputs, and illustrate how it is applied across a broad spectrum of tasks and industries, paving the way for next-generation AI applications.
