Main Goal of this Meeting

This is the AIM TF's second meeting.

Our main goal is to continue on tasks we left over from the first meeting: agree on how we are going to work together (including meeting cadence, format, other channels - asynchronous channels), potential roadmaps, call for topics, and an introductory presentation from Wenjing Chu .

    • 4-layer model (ToIP Technology Stack and ToIP Governance Stack) discussed.
    • @Mary Lacity - AI & Metaverse are two different technologies. How do they intersect?
      • Wenjing Chu - In both AI and Metaverse, the line between human and machine becomes less obvious. 
      • Vikas Malhotra - Metaverse presents new way to interact, while AI is about how these interactions will lead to formation of new algorithms and new decisions. 
      • @Maria SantaCatarina - Who is setting up the algorithms? Massive ethical issues. Have to look at human values before building tech that is rewarding for human interactions. 
      • Wenjing Chu - Algorithms that suggest what to watch and what to read could be exhausting. 
      • Zaïda Rivai - How do we collect data? Best data scientists etc. Which dataset you get? How could it be non-biased data? 
      • @Maria SantaCatarina - It is one thing if my actions are observed but it is another if my behaviors are analyzed and there is a deterimental action as a result.
      • Zaïda Rivai - Reminded of an incident where there was a bias in employment based on gender.
      • Vikas Malhotra - Bigger problem is about scoring and analyzing human behaviors.
      • @Maria Santacatarina - There is a discussion of how AI should be structured. There is a discussion of how AI should evolve, maybe like a child learning instead of data input.
      • Vikas Malhotra - There is work going on in such new models but there is still a concern on what such AI will become, good or bad and how to define it.
      • Wenjing Chu - Start a big document, begin putting issues and how to solve them etc... reach a common way of working. One document (GoogleDoc) will be created and shared where we will share.
  • Call for topics - some had been raised in the last week's call - and volunteers to lead discussions
    • What is the problem in AI & Metaverse
    • How it relates to ToIP
    • What have been proposed as candidate solutions (survey state-of-the-art)
