Using Gemini in AutoGen with Other LLMs
Installation
Install AutoGen with Gemini features:
pip install autogen-agentchat[gemini]~=0.2
Dependencies of This Notebook
In this notebook, we will explore how to use Gemini in AutoGen alongside other tools. Install the necessary dependencies with the following command:
pip install autogen-agentchat[gemini,retrievechat,lmm]~=0.2
Features
There’s no need to handle OpenAI or Google’s GenAI packages separately; AutoGen manages all of these for you. You can easily create different agents with various backend LLMs using the assistant agent. All models and agents are readily accessible at your fingertips.
Main Distinctions
- Currently, Gemini does not include a “system_message” field. However, you can incorporate this instruction into the first message of your interaction.
- If no API key is specified for Gemini, then authentication will happen using the default google auth mechanism for Google Cloud. Service accounts are also supported, where the JSON key file has to be provided.

Gemini Multimodal
You can create multimodal agent for Gemini the same way as the GPT-4V and LLaVA.
Note that the Gemini-pro-vision does not support chat yet. So, we only use the last message in the prompt for multi-turn chat. The behavior might be strange compared to GPT-4V and LLaVA models.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GPT-agent (to chat_manager):
To plot the products on the y-axis and the years on the x-axis in a scatter plot and save it to `graph.png`, we will use the `matplotlib` library in Python.
First, you'll need to install `matplotlib` if you haven't already. You can do so by running the following command in your shell.
```sh
pip install matplotlib
```
Once installed, you can execute the following code to generate the scatter plot and save it as `graph.png`.
```python
# filename: plot_google_products.py
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# Data for plotting
products = ['Google Search', 'Gmail', 'Google Maps', 'YouTube',
'Google Chrome', 'Android', 'Google Drive', 'Google Home', 'Google Stadia']
release_years = [1998, 2004, 2005, 2005, 2008, 2008, 2012, 2016, 2019]
# Placing the products on the y-axis and years on the x-axis
y_positions = range(len(products))
# Creating the scatter plot
plt.scatter(release_years, y_positions)
plt.yticks(y_positions, products)
# Adding title and labels
plt.title('Release Years of Google Products')
plt.xlabel('Year')
plt.ylabel('Product')
# Saving the plot
plt.savefig('graph.png')
# Show the plot for verification (this is optional and can be removed if only the file is needed)
plt.show()
```
After you have executed the above script, `graph.png` will be saved in your current directory. Please run this code in your Python environment, and then you should find the `graph.png` file with the scatter plot of Google products and their release years.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product_manager (to chat_manager):
**Product Name:** VisionAid
**Target Audience:** People with vision disabilities
**Product Concept:** A comprehensive and multimodal software platform that empowers individuals with vision impairments by providing them with essential information about their surroundings through image recognition and localization.
**Product Design and Implementation:**
**1. Image Acquisition:**
* The platform utilizes a camera or other image acquisition device to capture images of the user's surroundings.
* The device can be integrated into a smartphone, wearable device, or smart home appliance.
**2. Image Processing:**
* The captured image is preprocessed to optimize the performance of the computer vision model.
* This includes scaling, cropping, and enhancing the image for better recognition.
**3. Object Detection and Localization:**
* The Gemini computer vision model is then employed to analyze the preprocessed image.
* The model identifies the presence of objects in the image and determines their location with bounding boxes and spatial descriptions.
**4. Multimodal Output:**
* **Audio Output:** The platform provides detailed audio descriptions of the detected objects and their locations.
* **Haptic Output:** Haptic feedback is used to convey the spatial arrangement of objects through vibrations or tactile sensations.
* **Visual Output (for partial vision):** If the user has partial vision, the platform can provide a simplified visual representation of the detected objects and their locations on a screen.
**5. Accessibility and Customization:**
* The platform is designed to be highly accessible, with adjustable settings for audio volume, haptic intensity, and visual contrast.

* **Augmented Reality Integration:** By leveraging augmented reality technology, the platform can overlay virtual information onto the user's surroundings. This can provide additional context and guidance, such as highlighting the location of a specific object or providing directions to a destination.
* **Machine Learning for Personalized Experiences:** The platform can employ machine learning algorithms to learn the user's preferences and adapt its output accordingly. For example, it can prioritize the detection of objects that are of particular interest to the user.
**Potential Applications:**
* **Navigation and Wayfinding:** The platform can assist users in navigating indoor and outdoor environments, providing directions and identifying obstacles.
* **Object Identification and Interaction:** Users can identify and interact with objects in their surroundings, such as appliances, furniture, and food items.
* **Social Interaction and Communication:** The platform can facilitate social interactions by providing descriptions of people and objects in the user's environment.
* **Education and Learning:** The platform can be used as an educational tool to help students with vision impairments learn about their surroundings and develop their spatial reasoning skills.
**Impact on the Lives of People with Vision Disabilities:**
VisionAid has the potential to transform the lives of people with vision disabilities by providing them with a greater sense of independence, safety, and confidence. By empowering them with essential information about their surroundings, the platform enables them to navigate the world more effectively and participate fully in society.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Product_manager (to chat_manager):
**Additional Innovative Features:**
* **Crowd-Sourced Object Recognition:** The platform can leverage a crowd-sourced database to expand its object recognition capabilities. Users can contribute images and descriptions of objects to the database, which can then be used to train the computer vision model and improve the platform's accuracy.
