+# AutoGPT Agent

+**Location:** `autogpts/autogpt/` in the GitHub repo
+
+AutoGPT was conceived when OpenAI published their GPT-4 model accompanied by a paper
+outlining the advanced reasoning and task-solving abilities of the model. The concept
+was (and still is) fairly simple: let an LLM decide what to do over and over, while
+feeding the results of its actions back into the prompt. This allows the program to
+iteratively and incrementally work towards its objective.
+
+The fact that this program is able to execute actions on behalf of its user makes
+it an **agent**. In the case of AutoGPT, the user still has to authorize every action,
+but as the project progresses we'll be able to give the agent more autonomy and only
+require consent for select actions.
+
+AutoGPT is a **generalist agent**, meaning it is not designed with a specific task in
+mind. Instead, it is designed to be able to execute a wide range of tasks across many
+disciplines, as long as it can be done on a computer.
