Before starting this book I'd worked with LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, Ollama, the OpenAI API, etc. to varying degrees. What's been good about this book (so far) is that it has covered a number of technologies I had not previously explored: AutoGen, Crew.ai, SemanticKernel, etc.

The downside though, is that it doesn't go super deep into any of those things. So for me, it's been good to at least get a taste of what each is useful for and to serve as a starting point for further explorations. But just be aware that you won't become, say, a Crew.ai expert or whatever, from working through this. Still, I think it's valuable and I'm going to keep grinding through it. In Chapter 5 now, I think.
