> Use this tool when you need to leverage human intelligence to augment AI decision-making, or when faced with tasks that require human judgment or input. The Mechanical Turk tool enables AI agents to pose questions to humans via a browser console, receiving answers that inform subsequent actions. Ideal for use cases where human-in-the-loop processing is necessary, such as data labeling, content moderation, or resolving ambiguous queries.
