Recognizing there is no single "best" LLM, AlphaSense built a system to test and deploy various models for different tasks. This allows them to optimize for performance and even stylistic preferences, using different models for their buy-side finance clients versus their corporate users.

Instead of one monolithic agent, build a multi-agent system. Start with a simple classifier agent to determine user intent (e.g., sales vs. support). Then, route the request to a different, specialized agent trained for that specific task. This architecture improves accuracy, efficiency, and simplifies development.

Instead of switching between ChatGPT, Claude, and others, a multi-agent workflow lets users prompt once to receive and compare outputs from several LLMs simultaneously. This consolidates the AI user experience, saving time and eliminating 'LLM ping pong' to find the best response.

True Agentic AI isn't a single, all-powerful bot. It's an orchestrated system of multiple, specialized agents, each performing a single task (e.g., qualifying, booking, analyzing). This 'division of labor,' mirroring software engineering principles, creates a more robust, scalable, and manageable automation pipeline.

AI platforms using the same base model (e.g., Claude) can produce vastly different results. The key differentiator is the proprietary 'agent' layer built on top, which gives the model specific tools to interact with code (read, write, edit files). A superior agent leads to superior performance.

When building Spiral, a single large language model trying to both interview the user and write content failed due to "context rot." The solution was a multi-agent system where an "interviewer" agent hands off the full context to a separate "writer" agent, improving performance and reliability.

Building a single, all-purpose AI is like hiring one person for every company role. To maximize accuracy and creativity, build multiple custom GPTs, each trained for a specific function like copywriting or operations, and have them collaborate.

Instead of relying on a single, all-purpose coding agent, the most effective workflow involves using different agents for their specific strengths. For example, using the 'Friday' agent for UI tasks, 'Charlie' for code reviews, and 'Claude Code' for research and backend logic.

Salesforce's Chief AI Scientist explains that a true enterprise agent comprises four key parts: Memory (RAG), a Brain (reasoning engine), Actuators (API calls), and an Interface. A simple LLM is insufficient for enterprise tasks; the surrounding infrastructure provides the real functionality.
