AI models and agents

OAuth

Also known as: OAuth 2.0

A framework granting an application limited resource access without giving it the user's password.

A practical example

A user approves an assistant connection's access scope.

What should I know?

OAuth concerns access authorization; it is not a complete user login specification.

AI models and agents in practice

A model processes information; the application defines tools and permissions. Reliable answers require good sources and verification. Actions involving accounts, content, and orders must stay within the granted scope.
