This invention describes a computer system designed to help people make decisions. It stores information in a collection of "executable stories," where each story contains a set of ideas or possibilities (hypotheses) and text snippets that support or refute those ideas. The system can then convert these stories into a format that various decision-making computer programs can understand and use, with at least one story specifically using a Dempster-Shafer belief network.
Why it matters: Filed before the widespread adoption of advanced AI and large language models. LLMs could now automate the creation of evidence templates and assist in building and managing the complex belief networks, significantly reducing the manual effort required in 2008.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
