Physicalistic decision-making
Description
"The rational agent framework is pervasive in the study of artificial intelligence. It typically assumes that a well-delineated entity interacts with an environment through action and observation channels. This is not a realistic assumption for physicalistic agents such as robots that are part of the world they interact with (Soares and Fallenstein, 2014, 2017)."
