The exploration exploitation dilemma

The following table summarizes the dilemma between exploration and exploitation:

Exploration

Exploitation
To choose other actions randomly apart from the current optimal action and hope to obtain a better reward. To choose the current optimal action without trying other actions.

 

Thus, the dilemma is whether the AI should only trust the learned Q-values based on the actions as per the current optimal policy or it should try other actions randomly in a hope for a better reward resulting in improvement in Q-values and thereby, deriving better optimal policy.
