An agent in swarms is basically 4 elements added together:
`agent = LLM + Tools + RAG + Loop`

3. **Specialization & Task Distribution**: Delegating tasks to specialized agents boosts efficiency and quality.
| **Reduction of Hallucination** | Cross-verification between agents ensures more accurate, reliable outputs by reducing hallucination. |
4. **Parallel Processing**: Multiple agents work simultaneously, greatly increasing speed and throughput.
| **Extended Memory** | Agents share knowledge and task history, achieving collective long-term memory for smarter, more adaptive responses. |
5. **Scalability & Adaptability**: Systems can dynamically scale and adapt, maintaining efficiency as demands change.
