belief-desire model

The belief-desire model is a way to understand how people or agents make decisions. It suggests that actions are driven by what they believe to be true (beliefs) and what they want to achieve (desires). For example, if someone believes it will rain and desires to stay dry, they might decide to take an umbrella. In essence, our choices depend on our understanding of the world combined with our goals and motivations. This model helps explain and predict behavior by considering both our perceptions and our objectives.
