FYI - UPDATE - ISOC Human Centric AI SIG Election

Hi All,

The process of seeking to establish an ISOC global topic SIG is now going
through the vote stage.

Here are the recordings of the specific 'pitch' sessions on human centric
ai, by myself and luke...

Whilst I am not sure about this topic proposal being accepted, particularly
given the few topics sought to be operated by ISOC and the complexity of
this topic specifically, nonetheless I remain hopeful.

As was considered when this CG was being established, there are alot of
"social factors" alongside "politics" and other stuff that's historically
been more in the domain of ISOC than W3C, nonetheless helping to inform w3c
work.   Additionally, the means to support both widespread
inter-jurisdictional engagement & support, alongside the importance of
seeking to figure out how to support people seeking to engage in their own
private capacities, which is thought particularly important given the
subject & it's implications, has been hoped to be advanced via ISOC.

Indeed, over many years, first starting the exploration now almost a decade
ago...

So, the process in effect is a milestone, irrespective of the outcome.

FWIW: I found this list of resources for "Models of Consciousness
Conferences",

I know some believe the means to address these sorts of innate implications
can be achieved via a 'wallet based' approach, but personally, i think
they're wrong...   although, wallets have seemingly had an important role
with the experiences of persons, throughout history...  nonetheless, the
means to produce peace infrastructure, human rights supporting
infrastructure; and even, figure out both, how to achieve SDGs and perhaps
also update international humanitarian law to consider the implications of
'digital transformation', amongst the many things that need to consider
circumstances where people end-up with no wallet at all...

so, whether it be the notes highlighted by BVK:

or those highlighted by Paul Werbos;

I don't think cyber-security or the means to prepare for next-generation
systems (ie: quantum artificial super intelligence) can be done
effectively, in a human centric manner, via wallets...  connected to
systems, that generally have massive issues with data-hygiene...  but, atm,
that's where the money is, and not as many languages as might be best to
support souls, are able to be used today, so, idk...

I'll follow-up when I hear about the outcome; and thereafter otherwise,
I've been doing some work on 'safety protocols' / 'values credentials',
with particular regard for circumstances where there is conflict; and
deliberations around how to support humanitarian technology related workers
& core infrastructure..  as is otherwise also required for disaster
recovery & peace infrastructure projects generally, imo.

I'll follow-up about that also, once it's further developed.   Somehow, ICT
& AI Tech needs a 'safe mode'...  And, whilst optimistic, it was also my
hope that ISOC chapters might be an avenue to provide the internet
equivalent of humanitarian services, inter-jurisdictionally, as a
foundational support.  So, it's now all just up to the status of observers,
and related inferences...

Priorities, and all such things.
