So, a lot of folks figure CrewAI is just for wrangling a whole battalion of agents, right? But this video shows you can fire off a direct LLM call, like, super fast. Tyler walks you through setting up a basic flow, using a handy little model (Pydantic-style) to get your output all structured, kinda like how a workout plan lays out all the steps. And get this, the cool part is CrewAI’s got LiteLLM running under the hood. That’s a total game-changer because it means you can swap out AI providers (OpenAI, Google, you name it) just by tweaking the model name and API key. No more headaches trying to figure out a bunch of different APIs! He even pits GPT-4o against Gemini, showing how much quicker it is for straightforward stuff where you don’t need to deploy a whole darn Crew. And LiteLLM? Makes switching between these models an absolute breeze.
