Human-in-the-Loop [HIL]

Term code: AUG-0888 · Discipline: Agentic AI (AG) · Period: 3 · Language: en

Description

An established interaction-design pattern in which a human acts as a supervisory checkpoint within an otherwise automated decision loop, retaining the ability to review or intervene; a superordinate design concept rather than a single countable occurrence.

Operational definition

Superordinate framework term; not operationalized as a per-interaction event. It names a class of control architectures (human review embedded in an automated loop); specific instances are studied through narrower constructs such as confirmation-gating or override behaviour rather than by counting the pattern itself.

Measurement schema

Proposed measurement protocol (not yet empirically validated): Not directly measured; superordinate term.
