The Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) Model

The Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) model is a way to understand and design intelligent agents by modeling their decision-making. It states that agents operate based on three key components: beliefs (what they think is true about the world), desires (their goals or things they want to achieve), and intentions (the plans or actions they commit to undertake). By considering these elements, agents can make rational decisions, prioritize tasks, and adapt to changing conditions, allowing them to behave in ways that resemble human reasoning and goal-directed behavior.
