Hugging Face has released Smolagents, a little code library that is made to make building AI agents easier. Around 1,000 lines of code that define fundamental AI agent logic are included in the library, which enables developers to combine it with opensource or specific cloudbased large language models LLMs. Smolagents focuses on singletask agents that can carry out coded operations without producing code. The platform allows developers to publish tools for action execution or external data collection for community use. The library facilitates sandboxed testing through E2B and offers ToolCallingAgent for textbased or JSONbased activities. Hugging Face envisions Smolagents as a simplified method of implementing AI agents in practical use cases such as trip planning. Read More..

India’s Quality Control Orders QCOs Hinder Economic Growth and Global Trade Integration

India is unintentionally hurting its economic interests with its recent trade policies, especially the imposition of Quality Control Orders QCOs. Desi

India is unintentionally hurting its economic interests with its recent trade policies, especially the imposition of Quality Control Orders QCOs. Designed initially to impose quality requirements on imports, these QCOs have evolved into instruments for limiting foreign commodities, impacting everything from chemicals to shoes. These orders erratic and widespread implementation upset supply chains and led to monopolies, eventually lowering productivity and impeding job development. Notwithstanding efforts to shield customers against inferior imports, particularly those from China, the problem is made worse by the inadequacy and incapacity of certifying bodies such as the Bureau of Indian Standards. Indias economic expansion and inclusion into international trade networks may be jeopardised by this strategy. Read More..

After decades of reliance on Russian supplies, Europes energy landscape dramatically changed on New Years Day when Russian gas deliveries through Sovi

After decades of reliance on Russian supplies, Europes energy landscape dramatically changed on New Years Day when Russian gas deliveries through Sovietera pipelines in Ukraine were stopped. Although the gas continued to flow during the ongoing conflict, Gazprom announced the halt after Ukraine refused to renew a transit agreement.
