# Exocentric Awareness

For agents - that being robots, embodied agents, apps, automated traders - to fully become self deterministic they will need exocentric awareness. 

Everyone has access global data. News, api's, traffic data, weather, all singing and dancing LLMs...this is already commodities. 

Soon, the same will happen for egocentric data.  Great teams are building for this today however in a relatively short time, this data will be widely available. 

The opportunity, and gap that exists is building a long term moat in exocentric data. Our risk engine is a *start.* It lays the foundations for us to build the demand side with agent builders who need real-time risk intelligence. 

The bigger vision is to be able to build the human intelligence network to serve live, real-time exocentric data.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://blackswanwtf.gitbook.io/docs/whitepaper/exocentric-awareness.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
