Distinguishing System Components in a Learning Scenario

A smart home thermostat is designed to learn the optimal temperature settings for a household to maximize comfort and minimize energy costs. It observes the time of day, current indoor temperature, and whether people are present in the house. Based on these observations, it decides whether to raise, lower, or maintain the current temperature. The system receives positive feedback when energy consumption is low and negative feedback when a resident manually overrides the temperature setting. In this system, identify the 'agent' and the 'environment'. Explain your reasoning by describing the distinct role each plays in the decision-making and learning process.
