# A Survey on LLM-based Autonomous Agents

Autonomous agents are designed to achieve specific objectives through self-guided instructions. With the emergence and growth of large language models (LLMs), there is a growing trend in utilizing LLMs as fundamental controllers for these autonomous agents. While previous studies in this field have achieved remarkable successes, they remain independent proposals with little effort devoted to a systematic analysis. To bridge this gap, we conduct a comprehensive survey study, focusing on the construction, application, and evaluation of LLM-based autonomous agents. In particular, we first explore the essential components of an AI agent, including a profile module, a memory module, a planning module, and an action module. We further investigate the application of LLM-based autonomous agents in the domains of natural sciences, social sciences, and engineering. Subsequently, we delve into a discussion of the evaluation strategies employed in this field, encompassing both subjective and objective methods. Our survey aims to serve as a resource for researchers and practitioners, providing insights, related references, and continuous updates on this exciting and rapidly evolving field.
**📍 This is the first released and published survey paper in the field of LLM-based autonomous agents.**

<summary>Updated contents</summary>
- **📚 Additional References**
- We have added 31 new works until 9/1/2023 to make the survey more comprehensive and up-to-date.
- **📊 New Figures**
- **Figure 3:** This is a new figure illustrating the differences and similarities between various planning approaches. This helps in gaining a clearer understanding of the comparisons between different planning methods.

- **Figure 4:** This is a new figure that describes the evolutionary path of model capability acquisition from the "Machine Learning era" to the "Large Language Model era" and then to the "Agent era." Specifically, a new concept, "mechanism engineering," has been introduced, which, along with "parameter learning" and "prompt engineering," forms part of this evolutionary path.

- **🔍 Optimized Classification System**
- We have slightly modified the classification system in our survey to make it more logical and organized.
