Human Oversight And Software Fallacies

Question 1

Human in the loop

Answer 1

Provides data or information or advice for human controller upon request like reading sensors

Question 2

Human less in the loop

Answer 2

Computer interprets and displays the interpretation of the data to the operator.

No direct feedback:
Operator has no direct access to sensor outputs, misinterpretation of sensor data affects operator decision making

Question 3

Human on the loop

Answer 3

Computer issues commands directly, human monitors computer actions.

Operator controls process and receives sensor information only via the computer, comp handles both sides of control loop

operator is isolated from process.

Question 4

Human in command

Answer 4

Eliminate human from the control loop

Computer assumes control of process

Human has no access to the controls or sensors

Operator typically sets initial parameters for process and starts it then the computer takes over
