Verifiable Oversight on AI Systems

@Iain Barclay 

Slide deck: https://trustoverip.slack.com/files/U01T8AH6EPR/F044EN1624T/verifiable_oversight_in_ai_systems.pdf

  • @Wenjing Chu what verifiable credential (VC) specifically add rather than DID (authentic parties) + data management (e.g. Git)? @Iain Barclay May apply to higher level constructs and inquiries.

  • @Neil Thomson what is the difference between VC and 'verifiable data'? maybe over-burdening by throwing into VC as a single data container format?

  • @Vikas Malhotra What attributes? Will the attributes vary depending on where the data assets are? Who is carrying data in different buckets. Would we come up a recommendation with these roles? A work item in this TF?

  • @Mary Lacity How do you see this method applied to the "models" - in addition to datasets/source? BOM + Metadata. Probably reputation is also a factor. Examples in medical study/trial processes. e.g. data sheets with all side effects etc.

  • @Wenjing Chu My previous research paper also discusses this: https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.06362, where our research tries to capture the entire AI pipeline, including data sources, user interaction, models, and deployments.

  • All: Questions for this Task Force: can we work out a recommendation on how to address this ?

  • @Mary Lacity Ongoing work that may present to ToIP 

  • @Wenjing Chu For scalability/efficiency needed, we may also look at how software developers use Git or to extend Git to data and AI models etc.

20 mins

How AI & Metaverse intersect with ToIP stack? New design principles for ToIP stack?
