Discuss HN: Agents are the new object-oriented programming

3 pointsby rchaves5 months ago
From @lateinteraction on twitter:<p>In so many ways, good and bad, (LLM-based) Agents are the new object-oriented programming.<p>Part of it is that: there&#x27;s nothing that you can&#x27;t do without the metaphor (OOP&#x2F;Agents), but it offers structure that fit some problems like a glove—while leading to an over-engineered mess for some other problems.<p>The analogy is so precise that I&#x27;m surprised not to know of any duck-typing-like Agent framework based on OOP stuff.<p>[...]<p>OOP has a lot of baggage (think duck typing, inheritance, the whole hype, the mess, the nice elaborate metaphors) that fit Agents
