UPDATE: UDHR - InterPersonal "Values Credentials" & Justice Systems.

HI All,

whilst i'll be busy with the GDC[1] thing today; i've had some time to
quickly create an illustrative example of one of the ideas i've been
working on about how to form electronic shared-values systems, online,
which has various implications (including re AI safety)..

In this case, i've just made some quick illustrative modifications to the
UDHR providing the original instrument side-by-side for illustrative
purposes[2], whilst noting also, that i am continuing to develop the
document about forming a digital justice / prison systems, and related
requirements[3] which is not yet ready for presentation to the group in the
form of a proposal or similar; indeed, it and/or constituencies of it, has
gone through a few stages / phases, nonetheless, FYI.

The implication of what I would like to improve upon before formally
presenting to the group, ideally collaboratively with others!  - is the
idea that contracts have always historically - been able people engage in
terms cooperatively - all parties involved in contracts being
contributors..  Imagine if only the king was able to define terms for the
magna carta, no negotiation would have been required at all!!!  As such,
these sorts of concerns in relation to the 'digital transformation'
activities at large - give rise to human rights concerns, fundamentally,
but not solely.

There are also various implications relating to the creation of
decentralised Human Centric AI (private / personal) systems; and the means
through which they may be managed; both,
- by first seeking that people wilfully engage in contracts with
one-another that represent the values they have and seek to be held
accountable to - not as values forced upon them, but rather as values that
they have and care about that they seek to uphold in their own life,
dealings, etc.  and be supported to do so;
- This in-turn forms a constituency to other broader 'safety protocols',
whereby the 'terms' defined online between agents, is able to make use of
these instruments (whereby they're semantically defined, et.al); and
thereafter also,
- whilst there are many use-cases associated to social protections, one of
them is prisons. fairness and human rights are sought to be afforded to
all, including prisoners. So, in this age of serious online crimes, and
other issues, like 'cancel culture', and claims taking far more weight than
court-outcomes, if available to the disaffected at all; the means to ensure
support for human rights, rule of law - is on the top of my list.

Feedback is very much welcomed.

NB;
1. The work is still in its relatively early stages, as I work through it
on a best-efforts basis; somewhat also, becoming emotional whilst doing it,
when I consider all of the potential things that could exist to support the
human rights of persons, but dont.
2. Much of the content in the justice document[3] is sourced either from
earlier quick works done in relation to an implementation that I have been
working on for sometime; as well as other projects that i've looked into in
past; although, not that the document is exhaustive, in this regard.
