Q 795. Even the best-designed AI agents may make mistakes, miss the tone, or provide outdated information — especially after deployment. Ongoing feedback is key to improving them, but many AI systems don’t learn unless designers build that loop intentionally. Think of an AI agent deployed in your domain. How would you collect, interpret, and act on real-world feedback (from users, supervisors, or performance data) to continuously improve the agent? What kind of feedback mechanisms would you include — and how would you avoid overwhelming the system or the team? The best answer will be selected on the basis of: Practicality of the feedback loop design Relevance to a real use case Creativity and clarity in balancing learning with control Note for website visitors - This platform hosts two weekly questions, one on Monday and the other on Thursday.
