## Choose when

### Choose AutoGPT if…

- License: AutoGPT is Other, ai-berkshire is MIT.
- Tags unique to AutoGPT: agents, llm, artificial-intelligence, agentic-ai.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks.
- When you need to rapidly prototype or deploy an autonomous agent using existing language models without deep AI expertise.

### Choose ai-berkshire if…

- License: ai-berkshire is MIT, AutoGPT is Other.
- Tags unique to ai-berkshire: investment-research, portfolio-management, value-investing, stock-market.
- Also covers Evaluation & Observability.
- You need to leverage multi-Agent adversarial analysis for deep fundamental stock market assessment aligned with renowned investor philosophies.

## When NOT to use AutoGPT

- Avoid if you require absolute control over the underlying AI infrastructure and APIs used by your autonomous agents, as AutoGPT imposes its own framework.
- If your project demands proprietary or specialized models that aren't supported by AutoGPT's API ecosystem (e.g., custom TensorFlow or PyTorch models), consider other tools.

## When NOT to use ai-berkshire

- If your investment research requires real-time trading data or dynamic algorithmic trading strategies which are not the tool's expertise.
- When you prefer a more manual or traditional approach to value investing that does not integrate AI-driven adversarial agent methodologies.
