The presentation that is provided above, provides some historical notes through the lens of the works known by their association to Steve Jobs and Tim Berners-Lee overtime. Whilst this is not intended to be an exhaustive summary, the hope is that the background will be helpful for some who may be considering the broader implications of how it is, that throughout the history of computing there has always been a friction between 'mainframe' based systems (now called 'clouds') and systems that are designed to provide personal and inter-personal computing capacities.
In 2017 Web Civics produced a Sub-Event for the international conference WWW2017. The video provided below was produced late 2016 to support the creation and curation of that event. As was noted at the time; Whilst WWW systems provide electronic means for Rapid decision making, the Decisions about the Characteristics and Features designed into these systems are decisions made by executives. The Values instituted in our web-platform is changing the nature of our society at a time where we are only at the beginning of the Anthropocene. Decisions made by people producing systems of Trust make the difference between a world impacted by Fake News or means to provide vulnerable people Dignity and the means to make Informed Decisions. Trust Factory connects meaningful shared Experiences with discussion about the Intentional Design (or unintentional consequences) for the future of our Societies. Within the next year, Identity solutions will define the way Digitally Verifiable Claims are to be deployed and made available linking database records in relation to human activity. These systems will continue to reinforce the augmentation of Opportunities made available to Humans for live, safety, health, welfare, education, employment; and the means, to support a meaningful basis for Trust in Relationships with others. Whilst computing systems are designed to provide the means for Rapid decision making Capabilities, the challenge for all of our Community Leaders is how they may voice their Considerations about the ways in which these systems need to be designed and how Human communities are able to improve organisational frameworks to quickly Adapt and control the technological Influence of this changing world through industry improvements for Rapid decision making.
These challenges have arguably worsened rather than having been shown to have significantly improved. The video provided at that time, whilst now several years old, continues to provide various considerations as 'food for thought' about what is that has progressed, how those works have progressed and what sorts of objective requirements are still beyond reach. With effort and support, more can be done faster.
Trust Factory is a related project that is considered to be dependent upon the successful creation of Human Centric AI Technology. It is difficult to support accountability, rule of law and other Human Rights related considerations without the tools required to support the needs of people both, in every day life, and particularly when situations emerge that require attention...
Whilst an effort is underway via the Webizen Project, Webizen is an implementation rather than an activity to produce standards or a broader-ranging initiative involving many others who harbour different points of view about how Human Centric AI should be made to work. So the response to the considerations relating to this concerns, was to establish HumanCentricAI.org.
