Category: Agents

“HYOO-mun in the LOOP”

A setup where a person reviews or approves what the AI does before it counts as final.

Lesson #3: Under the Hood: Models, Meaning & Speed →
Think of it like…

An apprentice doing the work and the foreman signing off before it ships.

Everyday example

Autocorrect suggesting a word but letting you choose it.

Construction example

AI drafting the change order; the PM approves before it goes to the client.

Business example

AI writing the customer refund email, a rep hitting send.

Why this matters

It's the safest way to adopt AI now — you get the speed without handing over the final call.

One-sentence summary

Human in the loop means a person approves the AI's work before it's final.

Try it yourself

Pick one AI task in your business and decide who signs off on it before it goes out.
