💡 ML Concept of the Day: Task-Decomposition Planning in Autonomous Agents
Task-decomposition is, arguably, the most obvious form of planning in autonomous agents. As the name suggests, task-decomposition focuses on fragmenting a task into smaller sub-tasks and formulate specific plans for those. The key to robust task-decomposition techniques is to ensure there is a strong correlation between the created subtasks and the original tasks. Otherwise, it can lead to hallucinations.
