+> **Upcoming Breaking Change to Automatic Function Calling (AFC):**
+> We will introduce a breaking change to the Automatic Function Calling (AFC)
+> feature in the next major version. Specifically, users will not be able to
+> invoke AFC from direct calls to `Models.generate_content` or its stream and
+> async variants. Instead, users should invoke AFC from `chats` modules.
