Before we dive in, I want to clarify something upfront:
The core idea I’m about to share originated from me, but I’m using ChatGPT as my voice, as I’m not very efficient in expressing complex ideas quickly and clearly. Additionally, I have only a basic understanding of AI architecture.
So, think of me as the spark and ChatGPT as the amplifier!
Now, let’s talk about my concept:
Modular Output-Governor System for AI Models
Introduction
The modular Output-Governor system separates generative AI from content moderation. Initially, the AI model produces unfiltered outputs, which are subsequently checked by a separate filter module to ensure compliance with regional or organizational rules.
Technical Implementation
- Core Layer (Generative AI): Generates unfiltered, complete responses.
- Output-Governor Layer: External filter module reviewing outputs based on defined rules and/or AI-based classification.
- Audit Layer: Records blocked content along with the reasons for blockage, ensuring transparent accountability.
Benefits
- Flexibility: Adjustments for regional and organizational rules without altering the core AI model.
- Transparency: Clear logging of decision-making processes.
- Performance and Maintainability: Quick adjustments and updates to filtering rules, efficient generation through task separation.
Challenges
- High reliability required for the filter.
- Potential performance trade-offs due to additional processing steps.
- Secure management of internally generated but unpublished problematic content.
Ethical and Regulatory Considerations
- Precise enforcement of regional ethical standards and legal requirements.
- Enhanced compliance and acceptance through clear responsibilities and transparent decision pathways.
Conclusion
A modular Output-Governor system offers clear technical, ethical, and regulatory advantages and is practically feasible, though it requires careful development and ongoing maintenance of the filter module.
I’m curious to hear your opinions about this modular approach.
What do you think—does it make sense? Are there aspects you’d change or improve?
Looking forward to your feedback!
