Former DeepSeeker and collaborators release new method for training reliable AI agents: RAGEN

April 24, 2025
2025 was, by many expert accounts, supposed to be the year of AI agents — task-specific AI implementations powered by leading large language and multimodal models (LLMs) like the kinds offered by OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and DeepSeek. But so far, most AI agents remain stuck as experimental pilots in a kind of corporate purgatory, according to a recent poll conducted by VentureBeat on the…
