Implementation Overview: AI vs Human vs Hybrid
“Know when to use the tool. Know when to be the tool.”
Every process in Liana Banyan has a defined implementation type. This transparency ensures everyone knows where AI assists, where humans lead, and where both collaborate.
The Three Implementation Types
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ IMPLEMENTATION TYPES │
├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ │
│ 🤖 AI IMPLEMENTATION │
│ ══════════════════ │
│ Automated, no human intervention │
│ Examples: Vote counting, math calculations │

The Hybrid Workflow Patterns
Pattern 1: AI Proposes, Human Disposes
AI generates output
↓
Human reviews
↓
┌────┴────┐
│ │
APPROVE REJECT
↓ ↓
Proceed Return to AI
(with feedback)
Examples:
- Patent claims
- Letter drafts
- Code changes
Pattern 2: Human Creates, AI Verifies
Human creates content
↓
AI verifies (Star Chamber)
↓
┌────┴────┐
│ │
VALID INVALID
↓ ↓
Proceed Flag for review
Examples:
- Financial claims
- Technical specifications
- Public statements
Pattern 3: Parallel Processing
┌─────────────────┬─────────────────┐
│ AI TRACK │ HUMAN TRACK │
├─────────────────┼─────────────────┤
│ Generate draft │ Review context │

Decision Matrix: When to Use What
Use AI When:
- ✅ Task is rule-based
- ✅ Outcome is deterministic
- ✅ Volume is high
- ✅ Speed matters
- ✅ Consistency required
- ✅ No judgment needed
Use Human When:
- ✅ Legal liability involved
- ✅ Relationship matters
- ✅ Context is complex
- ✅ Values conflict
- ✅ Precedent unclear
- ✅ Accountability required
Use Hybrid When:
- ✅ AI can handle 80% of work
- ✅ Human needed for edge cases
- ✅ Quality assurance required
- ✅ Both skills contribute
- ✅ Workflow has natural handoffs
- ✅ Either could fail alone
Why Document Implementation Types?
Transparency
- Everyone knows what’s automated
- No hidden AI decisions
- Audit trail exists
Accountability
- Clear ownership per process
- Know who to ask
- Responsibility assigned
Improvement
- Identify bottlenecks
- Know what to automate next
- Measure AI vs human performance
Trust
- Members understand the system
- No “black box” feeling
- Predictable behavior
The MimicTrunk Integration
As members progress through MimicTrunk trust levels, their implementation access changes:
| Level | AI Access | Human Override |
|---|---|---|
| Trainee | AI guides everything | Founder approves all |
| Junior | AI assists, flags issues | Founder reviews major |
| Lieutenant | AI executes, reports | Peer review |
| Senior | AI executes autonomously | Self-directed |
| Commander | Full AI access | Trains others |
Higher trust = more AI autonomy.
