Human in the loop
Human in the loop means a person must approve an AI agent's action before the action happens. The approval has to be real. If the reviewer sees a one-line summary and clicks yes forty times an hour, that's human-in-the-loop theater, and the agent is really running on its own.
Also called: HITL, human-in-the-loop, human oversight, human approval, approval gate, expert-in-the-loop, human review, human on the loop
