This tutorial demonstrates how to build AI agents using Google Agent Development Kit (ADK) in just minutes. Follow along as Chris Hay guides you through creating agents with open source models like Gemma3 via Ollama or OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini using LiteLlm. Learn to develop agents with function calling capabilities, build multi-agent orchestrated systems, and simplify your workflow with the adktools Python package. The video covers everything from installation and project setup to creating specialized agents (including a pirate-themed one), implementing function calling tools, configuring agents to use these tools, and running them through both CLI and web interfaces. Despite some audio quality issues, this comprehensive walkthrough provides all the essentials for quickly understanding and implementing AI agents with Google ADK, complete with links to the demo repository, adktools project, and official documentation.
