Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional systems fail to detect and mitigate AI hallucinations in real time, which are false or misleading outputs generated by generative AI models, despite attempts to minimize them through data restrictions and reviews.

Innovation Solution

A quantum computing system operates in a mirror mode, mirroring data streams and executing mirrored AI operations, using continuous hashing algorithms to compare hash values and identify mismatches, allowing the system to pause and resume operations from the last point of identical hashes to correct inaccuracies.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If conventional systems limit the model or restrict input data sets to minimize AI hallucinations, then the frequency of hallucinations may be reduced, but the system cannot detect or mitigate hallucination outputs in real time

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveAI output accuracyVSAvoidReal-time detection capability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary actions by continuously hashing the AI model's output stream in real-time before the output is fully processed, enabling immediate detection of hallucinations as they occur rather than waiting for post-processing review

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback by comparing the hash of the AI model's output against a hash of the ground truth or expected output, and when a mismatch is detected, the system provides real-time feedback to pause the model and alert operators to correct the hallucination

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

2Measurement precision

If a quantum computing system operates in mirror mode with continuous hashing to detect AI hallucinations in real time, then detection speed and accuracy are enhanced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveHallucination detection accuracyVSAvoidQuantum processor requirements
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system creates a mirror copy of the AI model's output stream and processes this copy through quantum hashing algorithms, allowing detection without interfering with the primary output generation process. This copying approach enables parallel processing of the original and mirrored streams for comparison

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system changes parameters by utilizing quantum computing properties such as superposition and entanglement to perform hashing operations on multiple possible output states simultaneously, dramatically increasing detection speed and accuracy compared to classical binary processing

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Reliability

If the quantum processor mirrors the data stream and executes mirrored AI-based operations, then output integrity is ensured through continuous hashing, but computational resources and processing time are increased

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveOutput integrityVSAvoidProcessing throughput
Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies partial action by performing hashing operations selectively at critical points in the output stream rather than continuously processing every single output token, reducing the computational burden while maintaining detection effectiveness

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

Solution Approach 2:

The data stream is segmented into manageable chunks or blocks that are processed independently through the quantum hashing algorithm, allowing parallel processing of multiple segments simultaneously and improving overall throughput while maintaining integrity checks

Inventive Principle:

AI summary

Systems, methods, and apparatus are provided for remediating an AI hallucination using a quantum processor. A data stream may be received, and an AI-based operation executed. In mirror mode, the data stream may be mirrored, and a mirrored AI-based operation executed. A continuous hashing algorithm may hash output from the AI-based operation and output from the mirrored AI-based operation. When the hashes are not identical, output from the mirrored AI-based operation may be deleted. The AI-based operation may be terminated and reinitiated at the last point the hashes are identical. Output from the AI-based operation may be mirrored at the point that the search is reinitiated. In mirror mode, the quantum processor may be automatically scaled by adding quantum circuits to a quantum thread when a task has a duration that is longer than a threshold duration and/or a volume that is greater than a threshold volume.
