AI Function Calling: Composing and Decomposing Functions for Complex Tasks

This tutorial explores how AI models can solve complex, multi-step queries by composing and decomposing function calls - similar to how we break down problems ourselves.

The approach demonstrates how an AI can: - Decompose a complex task into subtasks - Execute each part through separate function calls - Compose results into a final, structured answer

The article connects this to fixed point theory from mathematics, showing how iterative refinement converges to a stable "consensus" result. Includes practical code examples using OpenAI's API.
