Before they were called tools they were called function calls in ChatGpt.

Before that we had response_format = "json_object"

And even before that we were prompting with function signatures and asking it to output parameters.

What’s the difference between tool calling and “agents”?

How would you handle map-reduce type of tool calls where you have a lot of parallel tools that you want to merge later on? What’s a good way to scale that without running into API limits?

It was called tool use before ChatGpt existed.
