Position: agentic AI orchestration should be Bayes-consistent

Theodore Papamarkou, Pierre Alquier, Matthias Bauer +27

LLMs excel at predictive tasks and complex reasoning tasks, but many high-value deployments rely on decisions under uncertainty, for example, which tool to call, which expert to co…
