One agent journey with three actions on a scale of consequence: retrieve a document (automate), recommend on the evidence (sampled review) and approve an account change (human first).
All 8 ideas

Idea 6 of 8 · Autonomy

The cost of a mistake does. Choose the minimum useful autonomy per action, not per agent.
