Human-in-the-Loop vs. Human-on-the-Loop: When To Use Each System

AI quality control systems can be categorized into three main approaches: human-in-the-loop (HITL), human-on-the-loop (HOTL), and hybrid systems. Each method impacts scalability, risk tolerance, and operational costs, providing diverse workflows based on task requirements. HITL involves AI performing tasks while humans retain final decision-making authority, preventing actions without approval. For instance, in loan processing, AI assesses applications but requires human approval for final decisions.
