Agent and Environment: One System
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
An agent and its environment form one system: the environment delivers stimuli, the agent delivers actions back.
Show
A robot vacuum: bumps and battery level in; turns and docking out; the living room — furniture, dust, sleeping cat — is the other half.
Watch for
Competence belongs to the pair: the same vacuum thrives in one home, fails in a toy-strewn one.
