Overview

This investigation proposes replacing prompt engineering with semantic verification in AI systems, suggesting enhanced validity and scholarly integrity.

Key Points

  • The research aims to address the limitations of prompt engineering in AI by introducing a system-oriented framework for verifying generated information.
  • Analyzed current AI practices in prompt engineering.
  • Developed a system-centric orchestration architecture.
  • Outlined semantic verification protocols to prevent context drift.
  • Integrated Socratic friction to enhance user engagement during the generative process.
  • Identified prompt engineering as a source of epistemic fragility.
  • Proposed a new framework for active cognitive evaluation of AI outputs.
  • Demonstrated the importance of real-time interventions for user discernment.
  • Outlined a scalable blueprint for improving institutional AI policies.
