Human-in-the-Loop

Balance automation with human oversight for critical decisions, ensuring AI augments human judgment.

What is Human-in-the-Loop?

Human-in-the-Loop is an AI design pattern where humans review and approve critical AI decisions before they're finalized. Instead of full automation, this pattern keeps humans as active participants who validate outputs and maintain control. It's essential for high-stakes decisions, situations requiring ethical judgment, or when building trust in new AI systems. Examples include Grammarly suggesting edits that you approve, content moderation tools that flag issues for human review, and medical AI that provides recommendations for doctors to confirm.
