Thank you for the detailed and technical response. I’m not doubting it providers benefits at the technical level, and I’m keen to dive into it deeper, but I was hoping to understand what benefits this translates to at a user level. I’m imagining something like it can lead to faster switching between between agent calls, or even at a developer level, it allows you to run agents/llms in a more constrained environment, therefore you can run more agent containers in parallel?

I’m familiar with enough with Java that I can squint and follow some of it, but I’m hoping to understand more at a macro level before committing to diving into the technical details.

Again, thank you for the information already provided.

You're welcome, I appreciate the engagement!

Your intuitions are right, faster switching between agent calls, and tighter packing of agents in the same amount of compute space.

There's a second thing besides just efficiency that I provide here however. At a developer-user level, it automagically provides JVM developers (not just java) a frictionless way to add AI into their stack with a single dependency.

It makes using AI in java as easy as it is in python.

I'm providing the [what I've found to be missing] layer for AI in java in the most efficient way I could.

I'm not sure if by user you meant developer (user of this code) or user as in end-user. Let me know if I still haven't answered your question fully yet!

Great. I feel like this is something that I’m going to dig into more. At day job I work with a platform that’s built on OSGI and JCR. I’m keen to explore if this could enable any interesting interactions there (they might not necessarily be good interactions though haha).
Glad to hear! Let me know if you run into any issues!
