Pros / cons of this tool
Hey this looks real interesting. Using create_ad_for_appartment as an example, what would be the benefit of using this tool over just chucking those same prompts into an GPT? Skimming through, is it just that things are more structured when using this?
I'd like to chime in here by sharing some initial impressions and some questions about how this framework is comparable to existing tech. But before that, I want to express my deep gratitude to the author(s) for making this repo publicly available. It's definitely a direction of the agentic framework that I'd love to see more of. Thank you for taking the initiative of doing so!
Now, onto some questions that I'm trying to convince myself about this tool. I successfully test ran a few examples from the repo. I then simplified these examples into contextual prompts, and fed them into o1-preview using the ChatGPT UI to see if o1-preview is able to generate on par answers with shorter run time and lower run cost. It turned out, for the 2 exercises I ran: 1) interview; 2) product brainstorm, o1-preview was able to capture everything TinyTroupe produced in terms of quality of answer, and then plus some.
Below is the output from ChatGPT UI using o1-preview on the product brainstorm example using near identical overall prompt (minus the details of the agents). The output covers the 4 outputs produced from TinyTroupe, but also offers additional ones that I think are useful/applicable. The cost of using gpt-4o on the TinyTroupe side was about $.40 plus with a considerable runtime (under a minute). I didn't measure it precisely, but I think an o1-preview prompt only approach would likely cost around the same or less with a slightly faster runtime.

I've also noticed that the quality of answers depend quite a bit on the choice of the model. For instance, gpt-4o, which is dated to August, produced less rich results than gpt-4o-2024-11-20. While that's expected, I'd expect TinyTroupe's framework given added context of persona, environment, etc. would've made that less obvious.
Understand that the framework is still very much under construction, I'd like to hear the author(s) and others trying out the framework to share new use cases where the framework has offered quality of results that can't be obtained via other existing available tech that can potentially match or outperform by quality with lower cost and faster run time.
