First, you’ll build and query a complex knowledge graph to perform high-precision semantic retrieval. Next, you’ll configure event-based messaging between two simple agents, observing how they exchange data and trigger workflows. In the third exercise, you’ll integrate text-to-speech and speech-to-text libraries so your agent can “speak” and execute spoken commands. Finally, you’ll brainstorm AI-driven, computer-using agent scenarios and see for yourself how well they execute tasks by interacting with your desktop environment. By the end of this session, you’ll have practiced four distinct techniques that you can adapt and combine in your own projects.
