WG Approved

@Wenjing Chu

The approved charter is as follows:

AI & Human Trust Working Group Charter

The AI and Human Trust Working Group (AIM) is to focus on studies and recommendations that (1) apply ToIP solutions to enhance human trust in AI technologies, and (2) integrate AI technologies to better solve trust challenges in the context of human and AI interactions.The Working Group’s deliverables may include insight reports, position white papers, and specifications and recommendations. 

Example areas of work include but not limited to White papers about strengthening trust in human and AI interactions leveraging the Trust Spanning Protocol (TSP) and other components of the ToIP stack, Communication protocols between AI agents, and between AI agents and non-AI data resources, services, tools etc., Authenticity and provenance of content and data, Personhood and AI agent identities, Delegation, accountability, and control of AI agents, and How to build trust in AI Agents frameworks.

LINK to current TF: https://lf-toip.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HOME/pages/22982892/AI+huMan+trust+Task+Force

All IPR options will remain the same as the latest TSWG charter (i.e. W3C patent mode).

Working Session on Use Cases

@Neil Thomson

@Steven Milstein

@Neil Thomson: Create an empty Google Doc for Agent Epic User Stories & share the link here & in Slack #tswg-aim-tf
Use next week's timeslot as working session to start filling in document
Next step: Use travel as general background for case studies, but start with a simple scenario first:
Research destination, ... , finally book a ticket.
@Neil Thomson will help reuse some of the existing work at DIF to illustrate this use case
Formulate a list of trust tasks involved in this case
This will be the first starting point. We will re-evaluate the need to expand to more complex use cases in order to better cover all critical aspects.

Fantastic Trust Tasks and Where to Find Them?

@Steven Milstein

This is a topic proposed from the Slack discussions:

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/stevenmilstein_insights-lf-decentralized-trust-activity-7326340926874836992-I019?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAAAREyYBDb60Qh9ppoI-QPnHFXKlaFCpCjk

https://trustoverip.slack.com/archives/C03G3S7BH8U/p1747228860297599

Following @Steven Milstein great lead, I ask what are a good set of trust tasks to have for ai applications? Can we come up a list? As implied by being a protocol, we like to abstract many similar tasks to a small number of reusable patterns (ie protocols). This list will be incredibly valuable for planning our work and give substance to the term trust tasks. In the past, we used examples like credential exchange, agreement signing, consent… but coming up with a real list would be a great contribution.

@Drummond Reed shared https://glossary.trustoverip.org/#term:trust-task

@Eric Drury: "check out the ToIP Model - towards the bottom of the page you'll see the trust tasks on Layer 3: https://www.trustoverip.org/toip-model/ "
