Build a Python AI Agent with AutoGen + Ollama – No API Key | Part 1

This tutorial demonstrates how to build a Python AI agent using Microsoft AutoGen framework integrated with a local Ollama model (llama3.1:8b), eliminating the need for expensive OpenAI API keys. The guide covers setting up AutoGen, configuring Ollama as the LLM backend, and creating functional AI agents that can perform tasks autonomously. This approach enables developers to run powerful AI agents locally with full control over the model and data privacy.

• Use Microsoft AutoGen framework for building multi-agent AI systems without external API dependencies
• Deploy llama3.1:8b model locally via Ollama for cost-effective, private LLM inference
• Configure AutoGen to communicate with local Ollama instance instead of OpenAI API
