## Abstract

Systems and methods for generating actionable regulatory insights for predictive analytics are disclosed. A method comprises receiving, by an artificial intelligence (AI) model, a regulatory query from a client device. A determination is made whether the query requires new data retrieval or if existing data can answer the query. When the query requires new data retrieval, a Web search is activated, which includes prompting an external large language model (LLM) to provide a regulatory document that answers the regulatory query. The regulatory document is retrieved in answer to the regulatory query. The answer to the query is transmitted to the client computing device. The generated answer, regulatory content, and the regulatory documents are provided in a feedback loop to the AI model, to improve training data. The client computing device is provided an actionable regulatory insight, including a recommended workflow of tasks based on the recommendation regarding the regulatory content.

(i) a first AI agent using a first model generating a candidate answer and producing a first output;
(ii) a second AI agent using a second model architecturally distinct from the first model independently validating the first output by performing parallel analysis of the retrieved regulatory document to produce a second output;

(iv) prompting the external LLM with follow-up verification questions to check veracity of the generated answer and reduce chances of hallucination by leveraging generative capabilities of the external LLM; and
(v) utilizing a vertically-trained artificial intelligence model, specialized in the organization's specific regulatory domain, to establish context of the retrieved regulatory document and reduce chances that hallucinated content from the external LLM will be incorporated into the generated answer; and
transmitting from the one or more processors to the client computing device via the network interface, the generated answer including regulatory content from the retrieved regulatory document and a reference to the retrieved regulatory document.
