hey I'm Scott from cognition Ai and
today I'm really excited to introduce
you to Devon the first AI software
engineer let me show you an example of
Devon in
action I'm going to ask Devon to
Benchmark the performance of llama and a
couple different API
providers from now on Devon is in the
driver's
seat first Devon makes a step-by-step
plan of how to tackle the
problem after that it builds the whole
project using all the same tools that
human software engineer would use Devon
has its own command
line its own code
editor and even its own
browser in this case Devon decides to
use the browser to pull up API
documentation so that it can read up and
learn how to plug into each of these
apis here Deon runs into an unexpected
error Devon actually decides to add a
debugging print
statement reruns the code with the
debugging print statement and then uses
the error in the logs to figure out how
to fix the
bug finally Devon decides to build and
deploy a website with full styling as
the
visualization you can see the website
here all of this is possible today
because of the advancements that we've
made in both reasoning and long-term
planning it's hard problem and we've
only just started but we're super
excited about the progress that we've
made so
far in the meantime if you'd like to try
out Devon on your own real world tasks
send us a request below and we'd be
happy to forward it to
Devon
