1. A computer-implemented autonomous agent operating method, the method comprising:
launching a first autonomous agent for a task with an initial update interval for reporting status updates on the progress of the task to a human user; and
adjusting the initial update interval for a second autonomous agent based on a second task for the second autonomous agent being similar to the task over time in relation to a trust level of the human user in a performance of the first autonomous agent.
