 We have designed a generic `ConversableAgent` class for Agents that are capable of conversing with each other through the exchange of messages to jointly finish a task. An agent can communicate with other agents and perform actions. Different agents can differ in what actions they perform after receiving messages. Two representative subclasses are `AssistantAgent` and `UserProxyAgent`.
 
 
-- The `AssistantAgent` is designed to act as an AI assistant, using LLMs by default but not requiring human input or code execution. It could write Python code (in a Python coding block) for a user to execute when a message (typically a description of a task that needs to be solved) is received. Under the hood, the Python code is written by LLM (e.g., GPT-4). It can also receive the execution results and suggest code with bug fix. Its behavior can be altered by passing a new system message. The LLM [inference](#enhanced-inference) configuration can be configured via `llm_config`.

The `UserProxyAgent` triggers code execution automatically when it detects an executable code block in the received message and no human user input is provided. Code execution can be disabled by setting `code_execution_config` to False. LLM-based response is disabled by default. It can be enabled by setting `llm_config` to a dict corresponding to the [inference](/docs/Use-Cases/enhanced_inference) configuration. When `llm_config` is set to a dict, `UserProxyAgent` can generate replies using an LLM when code execution is not performed.

 The auto-reply capability of `ConversableAgent` allows for more autonomous multi-agent communication while retaining the possibility of human intervention.
 One can also easily extend it by registering reply functions with the `register_reply()` method.

 ### Supporting Diverse Conversation Patterns
 
-#### Conversations with different autonomisity, and human involvement patterns
+#### Conversations with different levels of autonomy, and human-involvement patterns
 On the one hand, one can achieve fully autonomous conversations after an initialization step. On the other hand, AutoGen can be used to implement human-in-the-loop problem-solving by configuring human involvement levels and patterns (e.g., setting the `human_input_mode` to `ALWAYS`), as human involvement is expected and/or desired in many applications.
 
 #### Static and dynamic conversations
 
 By adopting the conversation-driven control with both programming language and natural language, AutoGen inherently allows dynamic conversation. Dynamic conversation allows the agent topology to change depending on the actual flow of conversation under different input problem instances, while the flow of a static conversation always follows a pre-defined topology. The dynamic conversation pattern is useful in complex applications where the patterns of interaction cannot be predetermined in advance. AutoGen provides two general approaches to achieving dynamic conversation:
 
-- Registered auto-reply. With the pluggable auto-reply function, one can choose to invoke conversations with other agents depending on the content of the current message and context. A working system demonstrating this type of dynamic conversation can be found in this code example, demonstrating a [dynamic group chat](https://github.com/microsoft/autogen/blob/main/notebook/agentchat_groupchat.ipynb). In the system, we register an auto-reply function in the group chat manager, which lets LLM decide who will the next speaker be in a group chat setting.

 - LLM-based function call. In this approach, LLM decides whether or not to call a particular function depending on the conversation status in each inference call.
 By messaging additional agents in the called functions, the LLM can drive dynamic multi-agent conversation. A working system showcasing this type of dynamic conversation can be found in the [multi-user math problem solving scenario](https://github.com/microsoft/autogen/blob/main/notebook/agentchat_two_users.ipynb), where a student assistant would automatically resort to an expert using function calls.
