Why does this use the assistant API

[gregnwosu]

couldnt the same thing be achieved via the normal openai interface with function calling?

[kendalleasterly]

my understanding is that by separating different functions into different agents, that allows for a lot more specialization and focus for each agent, and the more focused these AI's are the better

I also had the same question, through your reply reflects using Assistant API is cause of multiple focused agents are better at doing. but same thing can also be achieved with OpenAI Chat API?
