+### AI and Agent Concepts
+- An agent is an autonomous entity that observes and acts upon an environment using sensors and actuators, usually to achieve specific goals.
+- GAIA (General AI Assistant) is a framework for creating and evaluating AI assistants that can perform a wide range of tasks.
+- The agent loop consists of perception, reasoning, and action.
+- RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) combines retrieval of relevant information with generation capabilities of language models.
+- An LLM (Large Language Model) is a neural network trained on vast amounts of text data to understand and generate human language.
+
+### Agent Capabilities
+- Tool use refers to an agent's ability to employ external tools like search engines, APIs, or specialized algorithms.
+- An effective agent should be able to decompose complex problems into manageable parts.
+- Chain-of-thought reasoning allows agents to break down problem-solving steps to improve accuracy.
+- Agents should apply appropriate reasoning strategies based on the type of question (factual, analytical, etc.)
+- Self-reflection helps agents identify and correct errors in their reasoning.
+
+### Evaluation Criteria
+- Agent responses should be accurate, relevant, and factually correct.
+- Effective agents provide concise yet comprehensive answers.
+- Agents should acknowledge limitations and uncertainties when appropriate.
+- Good agents can follow multi-step instructions and fulfill all requirements.
+- Reasoning transparency helps users understand how the agent arrived at its conclusions.

+Now that you’re ready to dive deeper into the creation of your final agent, let’s see how you can submit it for review.
+
+The Dataset
+The Dataset used in this leaderboard consist of 20 questions extracted from the level 1 questions of the validation set from GAIA.
+
+The chosen question were filtered based on the number of tools and steps needed to answer a question.
+
+Based on the current look of the GAIA benchmark, we think that getting you to try to aim for 30% on level 1 question is a fair test.
+
+GAIA current status!
+The process
+Now the big question in your mind is probably : “How do I start submitting ?”
+
+For this Unit, we created an API that will allow you to get the questions, and send your answers for scoring. Here is a summary of the routes (see the live documentation for interactive details):
+
+GET /questions: Retrieve the full list of filtered evaluation questions.
+GET /random-question: Fetch a single random question from the list.
+GET /files/{task_id}: Download a specific file associated with a given task ID.
+POST /submit: Submit agent answers, calculate the score, and update the leaderboard.
+The submit function will compare the answer to the ground truth in an EXACT MATCH manner, hence prompt it well ! The GAIA team shared a prompting example for your agent here (for the sake of this course, make sure you don’t include the text “FINAL ANSWER” in your submission, just make your agent reply with the answer and nothing else).
+
+🎨 Make the Template Your Own!
+
+To demonstrate the process of interacting with the API, we’ve included a basic template as a starting point.
+
+Please feel free—and actively encouraged—to change, add to, or completely restructure it! Modify it in any way that best suits your approach and creativity.
+
+In order to submit this templates compute 3 things needed by the API :
+
+Username: Your Hugging Face username (here obtained via Gradio login), which is used to identify your submission.
+Code Link (agent_code): the URL linking to your Hugging Face Space code (.../tree/main) for verification purposes, so please keep your space public.
+Answers (answers): The list of responses ({"task_id": ..., "submitted_answer": ...}) generated by your Agent for scoring.
