Part 8/12:
At the architectural level, David’s Mirage (Microservices Architecture for Robotics and General Intelligence) underpins Raven. Mirage organizes AI functions as microservices, each responsible for discrete cognitive or perception skills. These services communicate solely via a central Nexus—akin to a hub-and-spoke design—allowing for:
Modular development
Independent upgrades
Fault tolerance and redundancy
Deployment on diverse hardware platforms (from cloud servers to edge devices)
Inspired by neuroscience and industry leaders like Amazon, Mirage facilitates scalable and resilient AI systems that can evolve efficiently, incorporating new capabilities or fixing issues without disrupting the whole.
