What term describes a situation where a person is involved in the action but removed from direct control?

The term "Human on the loop" refers to a scenario in which an individual has the ability to intervene in an automated system or process, but is not engaged in the immediate and direct control of the system's actions. This concept is foundational in discussions about human-robot interactions and autonomous systems, emphasizing that while a human has the capacity to oversee or intervene when necessary, the system can operate independently most of the time.

In applications like unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), this allows for a balance between automation and human oversight, providing efficiencies and benefits of autonomous systems while retaining human judgment and decision-making capabilities to intervene in complex or unforeseen situations.

On the other hand, the other options do not accurately capture this relationship. "Autonomous control" suggests a system is entirely self-operating without human intervention, "Remote oversight" could imply monitoring without the authority to directly intervene, and "Indirect supervision" may lack the clarity needed to convey the specific relationship of oversight with capacity for action that "Human on the loop" provides.
