I should point out that I am using these particular components as they are convenient — I used CrewAI in a recent tutorial (if you are new to CrewAI, I would encourage you to read it) and am getting comfortable with it. CrewAI uses OpenAI by default, so I’ve gone with that, too.
Another LLM, such as Anthropic’s Claude, Google’s Gemini, etc. would be as effective and…
