This module focuses on the critical skill of architectural selection. You will learn that not all agent "brains" are created equal. You will dive into two popular reasoning frameworks, ReAct and Reflexion, and learn how to use empirical data from A/B tests to make a justified recommendation for which architecture best suits a specific, real-world use case.
