Human View is the term as people read it. Machine View is exactly what an AI agent receives.

This is the page you're already on. The Human View toggle above shows it in full.

This is exactly what an AI agent receives. The same record, as JSON-LD, below.

Use this record in your app or agent

di get-glossary --slug core-network

GET https://api.decisioninsights.ai/api/public/v1/glossary/7a9d6adf-92c7-4911-923f-1a21212f1314

What we add

Graph

A glossary entry defines a term and stops there. It doesn't show where the term is actually being used or written about. We track and link every article that covers it.
