Rational Agent Model

The Rational Agent Model describes an autonomous system or entity that makes decisions to achieve its goals efficiently. It perceives its environment through sensors, processes information logically, and takes actions based on reasoning that maximize its expected success or utility. Essentially, a rational agent aims to respond in a way that's most likely to help it accomplish its objectives, given the information it has. This model is used in artificial intelligence to design systems that act intelligently and purposefully, balancing available data and potential outcomes to make optimal choices.
