Re: KR Perspective on Agentic Standards Integration

Antoine and everyone
Thank you for the availability and interest in my intervention


Just for convenience, I pre recorded an overview of what I d like to share
with tis CG and other CGs
It is 23 minutes, please play it  at the meeting today from your browser,
and I ll be there for questions/discussion

Can you view/play?

*anticipating possible signal interferences/limitations

The purpose of this presentation is to provide a bit of background as to
where I come from *ai/kr
and  contribute a navigation tool  *say, the outline of a Map for agentic
AI *a proposed ontology
*the contribution to the agentic AI ecosystem from the Ontology
Engineering  point of view

This is offered to W3C as a way of 'giving back to its foundational
efforts  and to be leveraged for internal alignment of the disparate
W3  CGS now operating in this space *and gasping.

It would be great if CG members could collaborate to get funding for any of
this, and if any of this is useful
please cite accordingly

I see you online in half an hour

Best regards

Paola Di Maio
