Ask! Differ autonomous item from accomodating item?

An autonomous item is one that operates independently and does not require external control or intervention. It can make decisions and carry out tasks on its own without human input.

On the other hand, an accommodating item is one that is designed to work in conjunction with other items or systems. It may require input or direction from a user or external source in order to function properly.

In summary, an autonomous item can function on its own, while an accommodating item needs to work in tandem with other items or systems.
