In HCH, the human user does a little work then delegates subquestions/subproblems to a few AIs, which in turn do a little work then delegate their subquestions/subproblems to a few AIs, and so on until the leaf-nodes of the tree receive tiny subquestions/subproblems which they can immediately solve.
This does not agree with my understanding of what HCH is at all. HCH is a definition of an abstract process for thought experiments, much like AIXI is. It’s defined as the fixed point of some iterative process of delegation expanding out into a tree. It’s also not something you could actually implement, but it’s a platonic form like “circle” or “integral”.
This has nothing to do with the way an HCH-like process would be implemented. You could easily have something that’s designed to mimic HCH but it’s implemented as a single monolithic AI system.
