Frick-E Energy™ Glossary: Human-AI Understanding, Promptology™, Human Algorithm™ & Machine-Readable Authority™

Frick-E Energy™

Frick-E Energy™ is the human-AI understanding and collaboration territory created by Heather Fricke. It focuses on what happens between human meaning and machine interpretation, and how enough shared understanding gets built for useful collaboration without flattening the human into a prompt.

Human Algorithm™

Human Algorithm™ is the invisible human logic beneath the words: lived experience, values, memory, emotional associations, pattern recognition, contradictions, priorities and stakes that shape what a person means before they ever type a prompt.

Promptology™

Promptology™ is the process of exposing enough of that human meaning, testing how AI interpreted it, correcting the interpretation, and building sufficient shared meaning before trusting the output. It is not generic prompt engineering.

Machine-Readable Authority™

Machine-Readable Authority™ is one public and commercial application of the same understanding problem. It is the public clarity that helps digital systems correctly identify, attribute, distinguish and route people toward the right person, company, expertise, evidence, offer and next action.

AI Identity

AI Identity is the version of a person or organization a machine reconstructs from the public information it can retrieve and interpret. It can differ from the identity the human believes they communicated.

The hierarchy matters: Frick-E Energy™ is the larger human-AI understanding territory. Human Algorithm™, Promptology™, Machine-Readable Authority™ and AI Identity describe different pieces or applications inside that territory. None of them is the whole thing by itself.
