Solution Overview

Problem

Current technologies using generative AI models (GMs) face challenges in combining flexibility with reliability, often leading to hallucinations or misinformation, particularly in sensitive fields like healthcare, and lack effective mechanisms to control conversation flow.

Innovation Solution

A hybrid system integrating scripted dialog instructions with GMs to guide interactions, incorporating a risk management mechanism, user state monitoring, and a feedback loop to ensure safe and context-aware responses.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If generative AI models are used to provide flexible and adaptive user interactions, then adaptability and ease of operation are improved, but reliability and accuracy deteriorate due to hallucinations and misinformation

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveadaptabilityVSAvoidreliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

A scripted dialog layer is introduced as an intermediary between the user and the generative AI model. This script acts as a mediator that guides the GM's responses, ensuring they remain within predefined boundaries while still allowing for natural language interaction. The script constrains the GM to follow specific dialogue flows and information hierarchies, preventing hallucinations while maintaining adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The dialogue system is segmented into multiple layers: a structured script layer that defines the dialogue flow and information hierarchy, and a generative AI layer that provides natural language generation within those constraints. This segmentation allows each layer to specialize - the script ensures reliability while the GM provides adaptability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Ease of operation

If generative AI models are used to enable natural language conversations, then ease of operation is improved, but control over conversation flow deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of operationVSAvoidcontrol mechanism
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The script serves as an intermediary control mechanism that manages conversation flow without requiring complex manual intervention. It automatically guides the GM through predefined dialogue paths, maintaining control while keeping the system easy to operate through natural language interfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

Dialogue paths, information hierarchies, and response boundaries are predetermined in the script before user interaction begins. This preliminary structuring allows the system to maintain control over conversation flow while still enabling natural language exchanges, as the GM operates within pre-established parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Adaptability or versatility

If generative AI models operate with high flexibility, then adaptability is improved, but risk of harmful outputs increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveflexibilityVSAvoidrisk of misinformation
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The script implements preliminary anti-action by pre-defining boundaries and constraints that prevent harmful outputs before they can occur. It establishes information hierarchies and dialogue paths that inherently block misinformation and hallucinations, countering potential harmful effects before they manifest.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #9Preliminary anti-action

Solution Approach 2:

The scripted dialog layer acts as a protective intermediary that filters and constrains the GM's outputs. It ensures that while the GM maintains flexibility in natural language generation, all responses adhere to predefined safety and accuracy standards, preventing harmful misinformation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
