Potential Levels of AI Agent Autonomy
Based on the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) levels of driving automation, adapted to define the levels of autonomy for AI Agents.
Level 0 (No Autonomy): The AI agent has no autonomous capabilities and requires human input for all tasks.
Level 1 (Task Assistance): The AI agent can assist with specific tasks, such as data analysis or content generation, but requires human guidance and oversight.
Level 2 (Partial Autonomy): The AI agent can perform some tasks autonomously, such as decision-making in limited domains, but requires human intervention for more complex tasks or in case of uncertainties.
Level 3 (Conditional Autonomy): The AI agent can handle most tasks autonomously within a specific domain, but may request human intervention in edge cases or when faced with situations outside its training scope.
Level 4 (High Autonomy): The AI agent can handle a wide range of tasks autonomously across multiple domains, with minimal human intervention. It can adapt to new situations and learn from its experiences.
Level 5 (Full Autonomy): The AI agent can perform all tasks autonomously, without requiring human intervention. It can continuously learn, improve, and adapt to new situations across all domains.
