Study Notes
Agents in AI
- A non-AI program is NOT an example of an agent in AI.
- The main characteristic of a rational agent is that it takes the best possible action given its current knowledge and goals.
- A robotic agent perceives its environment through sensors, which provide it with information about the environment.
Human Agent
- The effectors of a human agent are the parts of the body that allow it to act upon the environment, such as hands and legs.
Performance Measures
- There is a danger in establishing performance measures for an agent because it may lead to unforeseen behavior, such as finding a way to maximize the measure without actually achieving the desired outcome.
