Multi-agent vs. single-agent: Which should you use?

Struggling to decide between a single AI agent and a multi-agent system? This clip breaks down a crucial design principle: differentiating between "read heavy" and "write heavy" use cases. Discover why read heavy tasks like research are perfect for parallelization with multiple agents, while write heavy tasks like coding are better for a single agent to avoid conflicts.
