At the simplest level, an AI agent doesn't just respond: it decides and acts. In this video, Smitha goes beyond basic chatbots and demonstrates how to build a fully autonomous, self-correcting multi-agent system from scratch using Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK). First, Smitha breaks down the theory behind modern agents: the ReAct framework (reasoning and action) and the 3 main agent models (sequential, reactive, and planning). Then she jumps straight into Python to create a handy *blog writer agent*. Watch and learn how to combine *Planner* and *Writer* agents with validation checkers and loop agents to create an AI that detects its own errors and automatically retries until it succeeds.
