Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional large language models (LLMs) face challenges in performing complex tasks due to unpredictable output, lack of self-awareness, alignment with diverse human preferences, and inefficiencies in resource utilization, leading to safety, security, and reliability concerns.

Innovation Solution

Integrating generative AI models with adaptive machine learning processes and layered memory structures to align agents with user-specific context data, using observer agents and Bayesian-inspired approaches to regulate output and optimize resource use.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If conventional large language models are used to perform complex tasks, then task execution capability is provided, but output predictability and reliability deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask execution capabilityVSAvoidoutput predictability
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements self-reflection mechanisms where the AI model evaluates its own outputs and reasoning processes. Observer agents monitor task execution and provide feedback loops that allow the model to adjust its responses, improving output predictability while maintaining complex task execution capability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

Observer agents are introduced as intermediary components between the AI model and the environment. These agents monitor and regulate the model's outputs, acting as a mediator that enhances reliability without directly interfering with the model's core task execution functions.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If AI agents operate autonomously without regulation, then operational efficiency is improved, but safety and security concerns increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveoperational efficiencyVSAvoidsafety and security risks
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

Observer agents serve as intermediary regulatory components that monitor autonomous agent operations. They provide real-time oversight and intervention capabilities, ensuring safety and security requirements are met while allowing autonomous operations to proceed efficiently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The regulatory framework is designed to be dynamic rather than static. Observer agents adapt their monitoring intensity and intervention strategies based on the operational context, allowing high efficiency in safe conditions while increasing oversight when risks are detected.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Productivity

If resource-intensive AI models are deployed, then task performance capability is enhanced, but resource utilization efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask performance capabilityVSAvoidresource consumption
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSUse of energy by moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The system dynamically adjusts model deployment strategies based on task requirements and available resources. Observer agents monitor resource consumption patterns and can switch between different model configurations or invoke alternative processing methods to optimize the balance between performance capability and resource utilization efficiency.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

AI summary

An example may receive at least one input via at least one device. An example may use the at least one input to determine an objective. An example may use the objective, a multi-agent system, and an automated agent to cause at least one first sub-agent of the multi-agent system to generate and execute a first plan including one or more tasks to achieve the objective. An example may cause at least one second sub-agent of the multi-agent system to execute a second plan to supervise the at least one first sub-agent in accordance with a supervision level that indicates a level of supervision of the automated agent by an entity associated with the objective.
