 ====Reactive Agent Architecture====
 |  Architecture  | Largely fixed for the entire lifetime of the agent.  |
+|  Why "Reactive"?  | Named "reactive" because there is no prediction - the agent simply reacts to stimuli (sensory data) when/after it happens.  |
 |  super simple  | Sensors connected directly to motors, e.g. Braitenberg Vehicles. |
 |  simple  | Deterministic connections between components with small memory, e.g. chess engines, Roomba vacuum cleaner.  |
-|  Complex  | Grossly modular architecture (< 30 modules) with multiple relationships at more than one level of control detail (LoC), e.g. speech-controlled dialogue systems like Siri.   |
+|  Complex  | Grossly modular architecture (< 30 modules) with multiple relationships at more than one level of control detail (LoC), e.g. speech-controlled dialogue systems like Siri and Alexa.   |
-|  Super complex  | Large number of modules (> 30) at various sizes, each with multiple relationships to others, at more than one LoC, e.g. subsumption architecture.  |
