HITL (Human-in-the-Loop)

Level 2

Short Description

A workflow design where a human reviews, corrects, or approves AI outputs at key points.

Friendly Description: Human-in-the-Loop, or HITL, is a way of working where AI handles the heavy lifting but a real person stays involved at the important moments. It's like a self-driving car that lets the human take the wheel for tricky parts. HITL gives you the speed and consistency of AI plus the judgment and accountability of a person.

Example: An insurance company might use AI to scan claims and flag suspicious ones, but a human investigator always reviews the flagged claims before any decision is made. The AI does the tedious sorting; the person makes the final call.
