• receiving, by the AI powered assistant engine, one or more inputs from a user via a user interface initiating a conversation;
• providing, by the AI powered assistant engine, one or more AI models based on the one or more inputs;
• accessing, by the AI powered assistant engine, knowledge repositories representing neurons to provide and augment the contextual knowledge generated by the knowledge repositories in response to the one or more inputs;
• and
• generating, by the one or more AI models of the AI powered assistant engine, one or more recommendation responses to the one or more inputs as the co-pilot guided experience by the one or more AI models processing the contextual knowledge in an overall decision-making structure.
