Definition
Decision-making in AI involves selecting the optimal action from a set of possibilities based on data, models, and predefined objectives. It can be deterministic, following strict rules, or probabilistic, accounting for uncertainty. This process is central to intelligent systems, enabling them to solve problems, classify information, and plan future steps effectively in complex scenarios.
