Introduction Mistral has released its very first multimodal model, namely the Pixtral-12B-2409. This model is built upon Mistral’s 12 Billion parameter, Nemo 12B. What sets this model apart? It can now take both images and text for input. Let’s look more at the model, how it can be used, how well it’s performing the tasks […] The post Pixtral-12B: Mistral AI’s First Multimodal Model appeared first on Analytics Vidhya.

Introduction Large language model (LLM) agents are advanced AI systems that use LLMs as their central computational engine. They have the ability to perform specific actions, make decisions, and interact with external tools or systems autonomously. This allows them to handle complex tasks that require complex reasoning, unlike standard LLMs, which primarily focus on text-generation-based […] The post 15 Most Frequently Asked Questions About LLM Agents appeared first on Analytics Vidhya.

There’s a lot of noise surrounding the ability of AI agents to connect to your tools, systems and data. But building an AI application into a reliable, secure workflow agent isn’t as simple as plugging in an API. As an engineering leader, it can be challenging to make sense of this evolving landscape, but agent tooling provides such high value that it’s critical we figure out how to move forward.

Documents are the backbone of enterprise operations, but they are also a common source of inefficiency. From buried insights to manual handoffs, document-based workflows can quietly stall decision-making and drain resources. For large, complex organizations, legacy systems and siloed processes create friction that AI is uniquely positioned to resolve.
