Helper Agent

Helper agent Is it new idea that is part of prompt engineering and things like ChaptGPT. A helper agent can be added to a conversation with the AI algorithm, help agents can provide a view or a check after an answer is generated. Helper agents improve the ChatGPT's correctness and limits hallucinations.
Tim: What do you mean helper agent?

Rob: It just add another character into the chain of thought.... Just ask ChatGPT a question and in that question say had an "empathy" helper agent to focus on empathy to your conversation and after the answer is generated, assess the answer for empathy and suggest improvements to the generation. It's simple right?

Tim: Ah, no.

Reflexion

Reflexion, is a new method of getting ChatGPT and any autoregressive GPT to check its work, AFTER it generates answer. The answers, now that it is in STM, is used in a prompt, following any generation. It can be used multiple times. Answers get better and there are less are what some people call “Hallucinations”. See: Helper Agent. This was not coined by any symbolic ai scientist.
Tammy: Refection, Ok you made that up! I call BS!?!

Rob: No… its is real… there’s research, it’s reflection with an “X”… REFLEXION makes the AI do recursion. you cna use it to check ChatGPT and get it to tell the truth and corrrect itself… It’s the opposite. It reduces the BS
Tammy: This… you need! Wait. What? Recursion??? That’s amazing!

Fauxparadox

Fauxparadox; (noun) /fō-ˈpärə-ˌdäks/

Etymology:
From the French word "faux" meaning "false" + the Greek word "paradoxos" meaning "contrary to expectation."

Definition:
A situation or statement that appears to be paradoxical or contradictory at first glance but can be resolved or explained with deeper analysis or additional information. Fauxparadoxes are often found as part of false conspiracy theories to attract acolytes.
Sylvia: Rob, when you mentioned the the term fauxparadox, it reminded me of the classic "chicken or the egg" dilemma. But with modern evolutionary biology, we understand that it's more of a fauxparadox since birds evolved from reptiles, suggesting the egg came first.

Rob: Exactly, Sylvia! It's fascinating how many things we perceive as paradoxes can be clarified with a bit more knowledge or a different perspective. People attach too much weight to what they think is a paradox, when what you have to do is try to solve it with more observation and the scientific method. Most paradoxes are simply hard problems and thought experiments. A Fauxparadox is a playground for grifters the naïve and fools.
