RoboCast is a non-neural generative digital intelligence, Related Intelligence (“RI”), built on clear-box composition, whose performers or “Dirigents” follow the script and record every decision, giving AI systems a clear-box RI partner that people can audit and approve.
RoboCast is a non-neural style of digital intelligence called Related Intelligence (RI). Built four times since 1996 and tested with ZDNet, Hachette Filipacchi and Microsoft, deployed on InfoSpace, MetaCrawler, and others. RoboCast casts humans and machines into defined roles: AI co-writes the scripts, RI performers compose from addressed parts and execute approved workflows step for step, and people approve at every human gate. Because every decision is recorded, RoboCast offers clear-box behavioral truth for functions that must be audited and controlled. The architecture is described in US 7,155,451 and four continuations.
