Python: Confusion between Automatic function calling and Planner

[rakshahulle]

I am now confused between Automatic function calling and Planner concepts function_calling_stepwise_planner, SequentialPlanner. As mentioned Planner is deprecated and an automatic function calling is used for planning. Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/semantic-kernel/concepts/planning?pivots=programming-language-python

We will be deprecating the planners in the near future. The guidance is to use automatic function calling instead.

[rakshahulle]

Why will it be deprecating? How Auto Function Calling is better than planners?
