Automation Level

Evolution of Automation

Level 0 (POC) - Current

Philosophy: Demonstrate AI-generated publication with quality oversight

Key Feature: POC explicitly publishes AI-generated content (Mode 2), demonstrating scalable publication model with quality gates.

Automation:

  • Risk tier classification
  • Quality gates enforcement
  • Contradiction search
  • AI-draft publication (Tier C, some Tier B)

Human Role:

  • Tier A review
  • Audit sampling (recommendations: 30-50% A, 10-20% B, 5-10% C)
  • Quality standard refinement

Level 1 (Beta 0)

Philosophy: Scale AI publication while maintaining quality through audits

Automation:

  • Expanded AI publication (most Tier B, all Tier C)
  • Mature contradiction detection
  • Cross-scenario analysis

Human Role:

  • Tier A oversight
  • Continued audits (rates adjust as confidence increases)
  • Expert domain validation

Level 2 (Release 1.0)

Philosophy: Efficient AI publication with strategic human oversight

Automation:

  • Comprehensive AI generation and publication
  • Federated knowledge sharing
  • Advanced anomaly detection

Human Role:

  • Tier A final approval
  • Strategic audits (high-value sampling)
  • Policy and ethics decisions

Level 3 (Future)

Philosophy: Distributed intelligence with human governance

Automation:

  • Cross-node contradiction detection
  • Shared audit learnings
  • Sophisticated bubble detection

Human Role:

  • Governance
  • Ethical oversight
  • Tier A authority
  • Conflict resolution

Important Note

All numeric values (sampling rates, percentages) are recommendations, not fixed rules. Actual rates determined by:

  • Audit performance metrics
  • Domain-specific requirements
  • Community consensus
  • Governing Team decisions
