AutoGPT, which is an automatic chat robot, is an upgraded version of ChatGPT. AutoGPT essentially gives a memory and a body to models based on GPT. With it, you can assign a task to the AI agent, allowing it to autonomously propose a plan and then execute it. Moreover, AutoGPT is a completely open-source tool that anyone can use for free.
