Language Agent Tree Search¶

LATS (Language Agent Tree Search) by Zhou et al. combines LLM capabilities in planning, acting, and reasoning within a Monte Carlo tree search framework, allowing for deliberate and adaptive problem-solving guided by external feedback and self-reflection.

We've implemented this agent as a LlamaPack - you can either pip install it to run it out-of-the-box or call download_llama_pack to load the pack.

Set up Agent¶

Now we can set up the LATS agent.

Here, num_expansions refers to the number of possible sub-actions to explore under each node. num_expansions=2 means we will explore to possible next-actions for every parent action.

max_rollouts refers to how deep each exploration of the search space continues. max_rollouts=5 means a maximum depth of 5 is explored in the tree.

In [ ]:

from llama_index.agent.lats import LATSAgentWorker

agent_worker = LATSAgentWorker.from_tools(
    query_engine_tools,
    llm=llm,
    num_expansions=2,
    max_rollouts=3,  # using -1 for unlimited rollouts
    verbose=True,
)
agent = agent_worker.as_agent()

from llama_index.agent.lats import LATSAgentWorker agent_worker = LATSAgentWorker.from_tools( query_engine_tools, llm=llm, num_expansions=2, max_rollouts=3, # using -1 for unlimited rollouts verbose=True, ) agent = agent_worker.as_agent()

Run Some Queries¶

Lyft has identified several risk factors that could affect its business, including the ability to forecast revenue, manage expenses, attract and retain drivers and riders, comply with new regulations, and handle the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company also faces risks from macroeconomic changes, maintaining their reputation, managing growth, and developing new platform features and services. Additionally, Lyft's financial performance is subject to uncertainties due to the evolving nature of the market and their business model, and there is no assurance of achieving or maintaining profitability in the future.
=== Function Output ===
In 2021, Lyft reported total revenues of $3,208,323,000. This revenue comprises $2,957,979,000 from contracts with customers under ASC 606, primarily from its ridesharing marketplace, and $250,344,000 in rental revenue under ASC 842 from its network of Light Vehicles and Lyft Rentals.

Key risk factors for Lyft in 2021 include the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has led to significant operational adjustments and financial strain. The company's response to the pandemic included new health and safety requirements for ridesharing and adjustments to expenses and cash flow to match declines in revenue. The future impact of the pandemic remains uncertain and depends on various factors such as the duration of the pandemic, vaccine distribution and efficacy, government actions, and changes in consumer behavior.

Additional risks include Lyft's ability to forecast revenue and manage expenses, attract and retain drivers and riders, comply with regulatory changes, manage capital expenditures, and maintain demand and confidence in the safety of its platform. The company also faces challenges related to maintaining profitability, with a history of net losses despite recent Adjusted EBITDA profitability. Moreover, Lyft plans significant investments in electric vehicles (EVs) to comply with regulations and sustainability goals, adding to its financial commitments.

Answer: Based on the information provided from the 10K files of Uber and Lyft for 2021, here is a comparative analysis of their financial data and risk factors:

**Financial Data:**
1. **Uber** did not disclose specific revenue figures in the provided information, focusing more on their financial management practices and the quality of their financial instruments. They emphasized the high credit quality of their cash equivalents and securities, and the use of GAAP-compliant financial statements influenced by estimates considering the COVID-19 impact.
   
2. **Lyft** reported total revenue of $3,208,323,000 for 2021, with a significant drop due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a partial recovery, still below pre-pandemic levels. This gives a clear numeric insight into their financial status during the year.

**Risk Factors:**
1. **Uber's** key risk factors include concentration of credit risk, with their financial assets placed in high-credit-quality institutions, and various uncertainties that could affect their forward-looking statements and actual results. They manage risks related to their financial estimates and the broader economic impacts of the pandemic.

2. **Lyft** faces risks related to revenue forecasting, expense management, driver and rider retention, regulatory compliance, and pandemic impacts. Additional risks include macroeconomic changes, reputation management, growth management, and innovation on their platform. They also express concerns about the uncertain market and their ability to achieve or maintain profitability.

**Conclusion:**
While Uber's discussion focuses on the management of high-quality financial assets and the broader implications of their financial estimates, Lyft provides more concrete financial results and a detailed list of operational and market risks. Lyft's explicit revenue figures and detailed risk enumeration offer a clearer picture of their financial health and challenges compared to Uber's more generalized financial overview. This analysis suggests that Lyft provides more transparency in their financial reporting, but also highlights more vulnerability in terms of revenue recovery and risk exposure compared to Uber.
> Generated new reasoning step: Thought: I can answer without using any more tools. I'll use the user's language to answer.
Answer: Uber's key financial considerations include the use of GAAP and the necessity of management's estimates which affect reported figures. Financial risks for Uber highlight a concentration of credit risk primarily in high-credit-quality money market funds, U.S. government and agency securities, and corporate debt securities. Despite the risks of exceeding insured limits, Uber has not reported significant losses in this area.

Lyft reported a total revenue of $3.2 billion in 2021, with the majority from contracts with customers. The company has faced financial challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which significantly impacted its operations and revenue, causing a decline in 2020 and a partial recovery in 2021. Risk factors for Lyft include the ability to forecast revenue, manage expenses, attract and retain drivers and riders, comply with new regulations, and handle the ongoing impacts of COVID-19. Lyft also faces risks from macroeconomic changes, reputation management, growth management, and uncertainties in achieving or maintaining profitability.

Both companies deal with uncertainties and risks due to the COVID-19 pandemic and regulatory environments, but Uber's larger scale and diversified investment portfolio might provide it with a more robust financial base compared to Lyft, which is still struggling to recover to pre-COVID revenue levels and is facing numerous operational and market risks.

> Found solution node: Based on the information provided from the 10K files of Uber and Lyft for 2021, here is a comparative analysis of their financial data and risk factors:

**Financial Data:**
1. **Uber** did not disclose specific revenue figures in the provided information, focusing more on their financial management practices and the quality of their financial instruments. They emphasized the high credit quality of their cash equivalents and securities, and the use of GAAP-compliant financial statements influenced by estimates considering the COVID-19 impact.
   
2. **Lyft** reported total revenue of $3,208,323,000 for 2021, with a significant drop due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a partial recovery, still below pre-pandemic levels. This gives a clear numeric insight into their financial status during the year.

**Risk Factors:**
1. **Uber's** key risk factors include concentration of credit risk, with their financial assets placed in high-credit-quality institutions, and various uncertainties that could affect their forward-looking statements and actual results. They manage risks related to their financial estimates and the broader economic impacts of the pandemic.

2. **Lyft** faces risks related to revenue forecasting, expense management, driver and rider retention, regulatory compliance, and pandemic impacts. Additional risks include macroeconomic changes, reputation management, growth management, and innovation on their platform. They also express concerns about the uncertain market and their ability to achieve or maintain profitability.

**Conclusion:**
While Uber's discussion focuses on the management of high-quality financial assets and the broader implications of their financial estimates, Lyft provides more concrete financial results and a detailed list of operational and market risks. Lyft's explicit revenue figures and detailed risk enumeration offer a clearer picture of their financial health and challenges compared to Uber's more generalized financial overview. This analysis suggests that Lyft provides more transparency in their financial reporting, but also highlights more vulnerability in terms of revenue recovery and risk exposure compared to Uber.
> Found solution node: Uber's key financial considerations include the use of GAAP and the necessity of management's estimates which affect reported figures. Financial risks for Uber highlight a concentration of credit risk primarily in high-credit-quality money market funds, U.S. government and agency securities, and corporate debt securities. Despite the risks of exceeding insured limits, Uber has not reported significant losses in this area.

The risk factors for Uber according to the 2021 financial report include the inability to attract or maintain a critical mass of Drivers, consumers, merchants, shippers, and carriers, which could make the platform less appealing to users and adversely impact financial results. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected Uber's business by reducing global demand for Mobility rides and causing Driver supply constraints. Other risks include legal challenges regarding the classification of Drivers as independent contractors rather than employees, which could lead to significant legal and financial consequences.
