Agentic AI’s OODA Loop Problem
The OODA loop”, for observe, orient, decide, act”, is a framework to understand decision-making in adversarial situations. We apply the same framework to artificial intelligence agents, who have to make their decisions with untrustworthy observations and orientation. To solve this problem, we need new systems of input, processing, and output integrity. Many decades ago, U.S.…
