The AI-TOML Workflow Specification (aiTWS) is a flexible and extensible specification for defining arbitrary workflows in a TOML file. It aims to provide a standardized way to create multiple autonomous AI-based infrastructure and applications using a variety of programming languages and infrastructures (cloud, serverless, etc.) while ensuring secure communications, templates, repositories, access privileges, secure key management, AI governance/laws, logging, error handling, dependencies, and auditing.
AI-based applications and infrastructure require a unique set of requirements that are not covered by existing workflow specifications. The aiTWS addresses these needs by providing essential features specific to AI-centric workflows, such as fine tuning, feedback loops, prompt (NLP), Regenerative code, and machine learning components. The specification also uses the TOML format, providing a structured and human-readable way to define workflows.
The aiTWS is different from existing workflow specifications by providing essential features specific to AI-centric workflows, using the TOML format, and being flexible and extensible. Developers and operators can use the aiTWS specification to define and manage workflows, promoting consistency and best practices across the organization.
The TOML format is used for the aiTWS specification due to its simplicity, readability, and support for nested data structures. TOML is also designed to be easy to parse, making it an ideal format for workflow definitions.
A regenerative workflow using an autonomous application is a type of workflow that uses machine learning models to improve over time. In this workflow, the machine learning model is trained on data from previous iterations of the workflow, and the resulting model is used to generate new data for the next iteration.
For example, in a natural language processing workflow, the machine learning model could be trained on text data from previous iterations of the workflow. The resulting model could then be used to generate new text data for the next iteration, which is then used to train the model again.
This regenerative workflow allows the machine learning model to continually improve and adapt to new data, resulting in more accurate and effective models over time. The autonomous application handles the data generation, training, and evaluation processes automatically, freeing up human operators to focus on other aspects of the workflow.
The aiTWS specification consists of the following sections:
Defines metadata for the workflow configuration file, such as the name and version of the configuration.
Defines secure communication settings for the workflow, such as the protocol, cipher, and port used for communication.
Defines roles and access privileges for the workflow, enabling developers and operators to manage permissions and access control.
Defines repositories and templates for the workflow, allowing developers to reuse code and configurations across multiple workflows.
Defines the programming languages supported by the workflow, such as Rust, Python, and JavaScript.
Defines the key store and key rotation interval used for secure key management, ensuring the security of sensitive information.
Defines data privacy, fairness, and transparency regulations that must be adhered to by the AI-based applications and infrastructure.
Defines settings for logging, monitoring, and error handling, ensuring the smooth operation of the workflow.
Defines the dependencies required by the workflow, such as libraries and packages.
Defines auditing settings for the workflow, enabling developers and operators to track changes and activity.
Defines the workflow stages and actions, allowing developers and operators to define and manage the workflow's sequence of tasks.
Defines settings for conditional execution, branching, and parallel execution, enabling developers and operators to define the flow of the workflow.
Defines settings for integrating with external services, such as databases and message queues.
Defines authentication and authorization settings, ensuring that only authorized users and roles can access and modify the workflow.
Defines settings for event-driven architecture, allowing developers to trigger actions based on specific events.
Defines settings for version control and change management, enabling developers and operators to manage changes and revisions to the workflow.
Developers and operators can use the aiTWS specification to define and manage workflows using the TOML format. The following steps outline how to use aiTWS:
- Create a TOML file using the aiTWS specification.
- Define the metadata, communication settings, access privileges and roles, repositories and templates, dependencies, and other settings required by the workflow.
- Define the workflow stages and actions using the
[[stages]]and[[stages.actions]]sections. - Define conditional execution, branching, and parallel execution using the
[[conditions]],[[branches]], and[[parallel_execution]]sections. - Define settings for integrating with external services using the
[[external_services]]section. - Define authentication and authorization settings using the
[[authorization]]section. - Define event-driven architecture settings using the
[[events]],[[triggers]], and[[handlers]]sections. - Define settings for version control and change management using the
[version_control]and[change_management]sections.
Once the TOML file is defined, it can be used to create and manage AI-centric workflows. Developers and operators can use tools that support TOML to create and edit the configuration files. For example, Rust developers can use the toml crate to read and write TOML files, while Python developers can use the pytoml library.
The AI-TOML Workflow Specification (aiTWS) is a comprehensive and flexible specification for defining arbitrary workflows in a TOML file. By incorporating essential features specific to AI-centric workflows, such as fine tuning, feedback loops, prompt (NLP), Regenerative code, and machine learning components, aiTWS enables developers and operators to create and manage complex AI-based workflows efficiently. Using the TOML format, aiTWS provides a structured and human-readable way to define workflows, promoting consistency and best practices across the organization.
