Unlock the secret to a 95%+ success rate for your AI agents with this insightful blog post. Discover how to craft tweets that effortlessly fit within the character limits, ensuring your AI-generated content shines on social media.

How We Can Ensure a 95%+ Success Rate for Our AI Agents

To ensure a high success rate for our AI agents, we need to take a proactive approach and introduce human-driven restrictions and guidelines. Large language models, while powerful, are not perfect and can sometimes exceed character limits or fail to meet specific requirements. By creating a multi-step workflow with conditional checks, we can guarantee a 95% or higher success rate for our AI agent's tweets.

The key steps are:

  1. Generate the Tweet: Use a large language model like GPT-4 Turbo to generate the initial tweet, including the desired tone, topic, and hashtags.

  2. Check Character Count: Verify that the generated tweet, including the hashtags, is under the 280-character limit for Twitter.

  3. Reduce Hashtags if Needed: If the tweet exceeds the character limit, remove one hashtag and check the character count again.

  4. Further Reduction if Needed: If the tweet is still too long, remove another hashtag and check the character count once more.

  5. Final Fallback: If all previous steps fail, rewrite the tweet entirely to ensure it is under the character limit.

By implementing this multi-step process, we can ensure that our AI agent's tweets are consistently within the required character limit, even if the initial generation exceeds the limit. This approach allows us to leverage the power of large language models while maintaining control over the final output, resulting in a highly reliable and successful AI agent.

Creating a New AI Agent that Posts to Twitter

To create a new AI agent that posts to Twitter, follow these steps:

  1. Go to your-ai-agent.com and sign up by entering your name, email address, and a password.
  2. On the Connections page, click the button to integrate with Twitter. Name the connection and provide the client ID from your Twitter developer portal.
  3. Follow the steps to create a new project and app on the Twitter Developer Portal. Set the app permissions to read and write, and the app type to native. Enter the your-ai-agent.com URL for the Callback URI and Website URL.
  4. Go back to the Settings page on your-ai-agent.com and paste the client ID from the Twitter app.
  5. Connect your Twitter account by authorizing the app.
  6. Next, choose an API model for your large language model, such as OpenAI's GPT-4 Turbo or Gemini 1.0 Pro. If using OpenAI, create a new secret key and add it to the settings.
  7. On the Home page, click on the xot AI agent and configure the settings, including the Twitter connection, text model, language, posting interval, tones, topics, and hashtags.
  8. Click "Start xot" to activate the workflow, which will automatically post tweets on your behalf, ensuring they stay under the 280-character limit.

The backend workflow uses a multi-step process to craft the tweet and ensure it fits within the character limit, removing hashtags if necessary. This approach guarantees a high success rate for your AI agent's Twitter posts.

Diving Deep into the Backend Code

The key to ensuring that the AI agent's tweets stay within the 280-character limit on Twitter is the multi-step workflow implemented in the backend code. Let's dive into the details:

  1. Post Tweet API: The workflow starts by using the Twitter API to post the tweet. The authorization is handled using the access token obtained when the user connected their Twitter account to the app.

  2. Character Count Validation: After crafting the tweet, including the text and the hashtags, the workflow checks if the total character count is under the 280-character limit. If it is, the tweet is successfully posted.

  3. Iterative Optimization: If the tweet exceeds the character limit, the workflow enters an iterative optimization process. It removes one hashtag at a time, checking if the tweet is now under the limit. This process continues until a version of the tweet that fits the character limit is found.

  4. Fallback Option: As a final fallback, the workflow includes a step that completely removes the hashtags, leaving only the tweet text. This ensures that even if the previous steps fail, a version of the tweet that fits the character limit is posted.

By breaking down the tweet generation process into these multiple steps, the workflow guarantees that a tweet will be successfully posted, even if the initial attempt exceeds the character limit. This approach demonstrates the importance of incorporating human-defined constraints and iterative optimization when working with large language models, to ensure the desired output is achieved.

Crafting Tweets Under the Character Limit

To ensure that our AI agent's tweets stay under the 280-character limit set by Twitter, we've implemented a multi-step process:

  1. Initial Tweet Generation: The AI agent uses a large language model, such as GPT-4 Turbo, to generate a tweet that includes the desired tone, topic, and three relevant hashtags. However, at this stage, we don't know if the tweet will be under the character limit.

  2. Character Count Check: We check the length of the generated tweet. If it's under 280 characters, we proceed to post the tweet.

  3. Hashtag Reduction: If the initial tweet is over the character limit, we remove one of the hashtags and check the length again. This step is repeated until the tweet is under 280 characters.

  4. Final Fallback: If the tweet is still over the character limit after removing all three hashtags, we use a plugin to rewrite the tweet content to be under the limit.

This multi-step approach ensures that we always end up with a tweet that fits within the Twitter API's character restrictions, even if the initial language model output is too long. By breaking down the task into simpler subtasks and iteratively refining the tweet, we can reliably generate tweets that meet the required specifications.

Conclusion

The key takeaways from this video are:

  1. Large language models like GPT-4 and GPT-3.5 can be powerful tools for automating tasks, but they require careful prompting and human involvement to ensure the desired outcomes.

  2. When creating AI agents to post on platforms like Twitter, it's important to set specific guidelines and restrictions to keep the output within the platform's character limits and formatting requirements.

  3. The strategy of "splitting complex tasks into simpler subtasks" is an effective prompt engineering technique that can help ensure the AI agent produces the desired results.

  4. By manually intervening and editing the AI-generated content when necessary, you can achieve a high success rate in completing the task, even with the limitations of current language models.

  5. Building custom AI applications like your-ai-agent.com can be a powerful way to leverage these language models for your business needs. The provided links offer resources to help you get started.

Overall, this video demonstrates the importance of understanding the capabilities and limitations of large language models, and the value of combining their power with human oversight and intervention to achieve the best results.
