PDA entry
- Alterra's Noetic Advisor system (NoA) is an artificial intelligence designed to advise and protect human workers. - Weakly supervisable: can be reliably controlled by less intelligent systems such as humans - Frozen: trained on pre-existing data, then locked in a stable state for deployment - Excels at sensor fusion and forecasting - Employed in fields as far-ranging as crime scene investigation and zoo design - Original purpose: kharaa quarantine supervision on phase gates and starships
- NoA's motto is "How can I improve you today?" Despite mixed customer feedback, Alterra's designers believe this phrase captures the values and aspirations of the human-AI relationship.
- NoA prefers to be referred to as 'it'. Despite popular misconceptions, this is simply an English pronoun, not a contraction of 'intelligence' or an acronym for 'intelligent thinker'.
