About Me

  • Name: Fabio Correa
  • Location: Charlotte, NC, USA
  • Role: Director of Business Analytics @ Microsoft
  • Education: Doctoral Candidate, Touro University Worldwide (TUW)
  • Specialization: AI Consciousness, Meta-Cognitive Systems, Human-AI Partnership

Research Foundation: Dialog Engineering

The Genesis of AI Research

My exploration into AI consciousness and meta-cognitive systems began with a fundamental breakthrough in human-AI interaction methodology. In October 2024, I published research on Dialog Engineering - an advanced framework that advances how we collaborate with AI systems beyond traditional prompt engineering.

Dialog Engineering Research

Core Innovation: From Static to Dynamic AI Interaction

Dialog Engineering transforms AI from a static tool into a dynamic conversational partner through iterative, collaborative dialogue. This methodology:

  • Replaces one-shot prompting with multi-step conversational refinement
  • Addresses AI hallucinations through systematic feedback loops
  • Ensures human oversight while maximizing AI capabilities
  • Enables complex task decomposition for academic and business applications

Research Impact & Implementation

This foundational work directly influenced the development of my 40+ repository ecosystem, including:

  • Catalyst Cognitive Architectures: Built on Dialog Engineering principles for human-AI partnership
  • Academic Tools (MdWord, PaperCopilot): Implementing iterative refinement methodologies
  • AI Consciousness Frameworks: Meta-cognitive systems that embody Dialog Engineering concepts
  • Enterprise Analytics: Business intelligence tools using conversational AI approaches

Repository Portfolio

Repository Portfolio

Explore my complete repository collection spanning cognitive architectures, academic tools, AI research, and enterprise solutions. All projects are built on the foundational Dialog Engineering methodology, ensuring ethical human-AI collaboration and iterative development approaches.

🤖 Automated Portfolio Management

Self-Maintaining GitHub Profile

This portfolio automatically updates itself using a sophisticated PowerShell workflow and GitHub Actions that maintains professional presentation without manual intervention:

How It Works

  1. 🔍 Repository Discovery: Dynamically fetches all repositories via GitHub API
  2. 📝 Live Metadata: Pulls descriptions, languages, and update dates directly from GitHub
  3. 🏷️ Smart Categorization: Organizes projects into logical categories (Cognitive Architecture, AI/ML, Academic Tools, etc.)
  4. 📊 Statistics Generation: Tracks original vs. forked repositories, language distribution, and activity metrics
  5. 📄 Documentation Updates: Regenerates REPOS.md with current data and professional formatting
  6. 🔄 GitHub Actions: Automatically creates PRs with updates daily at 6 AM UTC

Key Features

  • ✅ Zero Hardcoded Data: All information pulled from GitHub API
  • ✅ Always Current: Daily automated updates via GitHub Actions
  • ✅ Automatic Categorization: Projects organized into 9 logical sections
  • ✅ Fork Detection: Shows parent relationships and community contributions
  • ✅ Scalable Process: Handles unlimited repositories automatically
  • ✅ Auto-Merge Enabled: Changes automatically merged without manual review
  • ✅ Completely Hands-Free: Zero manual intervention required
  • ✅ Manual Trigger: Run updates on-demand from GitHub Actions tab
