The HI-HO Framework™ Training Platform
A practical, interactive curriculum for using generative AI in ways that aid humans rather than replace them. Built on a single ethical standard: human dignity.
Companion to the official foundational guide, The HI-HO Framework™: Human Intelligence in the Age of AI by Timothy M. Stafford, PhD.
The framework, in one line
Humans aided, not replaced
Generative AI augments judgment; it never substitutes for it.
Dignity is the standard
Every use is measured against non-marginalization of humans.
Iterative by design
The dash between HI and HO is a conversation, not a handoff.
Choose your track
The same framework, calibrated to your work. Each track is interactive: read, practice with real scenarios, then apply HI-HO in the live AI lab.

The HI-HO Framework™: Human Intelligence in the Age of AI
The written foundation behind this platform — the manifesto, the Practice Cycle (Intend, Inform, Interact, Interpret, Inspect, Integrate), classroom and professional-development activities, and the Quick-Use Checklist. By Timothy M. Stafford, PhD · RUI Press.
How the framework works
Click each part of the diagram to see what it asks of you — and what it refuses to outsource to the machine.
HI · Human Input
The human controls the information and details that go into the AI.
You decide what context, data, framing, audience, and intent reach the model. Nothing is generated from a vacuum. HI is the moment where authorship begins and where bias, scope, and ethical guardrails are set.
