Unit 4 — Autonomy

Memory, connections, and skills make an AI capable. Autonomy is what makes it useful while you’re not there: work tied to a schedule or an event instead of to your presence, running while you sleep — and honest enough about its own results that you can trust what you find in the morning.

Notes in this unit

• AI That Doesn’t Wait to Be Asked — the clock and the event replace you as the trigger.
• From Operator to Reviewer — what autonomy does to your role.
• Don’t Grade Your Own Homework — the trust rule that makes unattended work safe.
