Overview
GPT Researcher 是一个开源的自主研究代理，专门设计用于对任何给定任务进行深度的网络和本地研究。该工具能够生成详细、事实准确且无偏见的研究报告，并提供完整的引用信息。基于Plan-and-Solve和RAG论文的理论基础，GPT Researcher通过并行化代理工作解决了传统研究中的错误信息、速度限制、确定性和可靠性问题。该工具支持多种LLM提供商，提供全面的自定义选项来创建特定领域和定制化的研究代理。其使命是通过AI为个人和组织提供准确、无偏见和基于事实的信息，大大缩短了原本需要数周时间的手动研究过程，同时避免了LLM在过时信息上训练导致的幻觉问题和现有服务中有限网络资源导致的偏见。
