Is it neuro-symbolic AI if a generative AI system is used to generate a symbolic representation, which is then modified by a human user, and provided back to the generative AI in a later phase? Or does neuro-generative AI specifically require automated reasoning over the symbolic knowledge? I'm playing with a system for editing propositional argument maps that were generated by an LLM, and I'm not sure that counts. Is it "reasoning over symbolic knowledge" if a symbolic data structure is only being used to generate a graphical UI? It seems borderline, but I'm inclined to think not, and if we aren't reasoning over it, it doesn't count...

Is this just about jargon? That's so fluent around AI that I wouldn't worry about it at this point in time.

just put a placeholder name and then rename when you see your system in use
whom would have know that "c3po" is fun and memorizable name
and I also would like to explore AST+LLM combination
