Ethics, Laws, Contracts, Identity & Enforcement

While much buzz is going around re the letter today about slowing down AI development , this article takes a very different tact. Why? In the end, ethics and risk comes down to laws and regulations pertaining to the ethics/risk and enforcement.

First, Let's Start With the Letter

it states:

"AI research and development should be refocused on making today's powerful, state-of-the-art systems more accurate, safe, interpretable, transparent, robust, aligned, trustworthy, and loyal.

In parallel, AI developers must work with policymakers to dramatically accelerate development of robust AI governance systems. These should at a minimum include: new and capable regulatory authorities dedicated to AI; oversight and tracking of highly capable AI systems and large pools of computational capability; provenance and watermarking systems to help distinguish real from synthetic and to track model leaks; a robust auditing and certification ecosystem; liability for AI-caused harm; robust public funding for technical AI safety research; and well-resourced institutions for coping with the dramatic economic and political disruptions (especially to democracy) that AI will cause."

All of which sounds good on the surface. Let's leap ahead and assume a governance structure exists. Let's also leap ahead to enforcement of the governance laws and regulations. Here's the first harsh reality...

Enforcement Around the Planet Sucks - Why?

Skim this article, "Fighting cybercrime – what happens to the law when the law cannot be enforced? " It's currently 0.05%. Why? Criminals operate out of jurisdictions where they can't be prosecuted.

Bluntly speaking, when the AI ethics/risk are applied to laws, and the Evil Inc.'s, Malicious States, et al want to do things which aren't laid out in the laws and regulations, then they will likely be very successful. This is the kind of practical talk which won't get much airtime because it flies in the face of the political intent.

Let's push this to the side and discuss laws...

Laws

Let's hypothetically assume jurisdictions come together to create laws pertaining to AI. It must be granular i.e., it must specify what an AI system can and can't do. Here's the next challenge...

Specifying an AI Entity

Let's assume a jurisdiction wants to enforce an AI law and take the owner of it to court. If the AI is owned by a LLC (Limited Liability Corporation), today, on the planet, in some jurisdictions, it's legally viable for an AI system to own the LLC. Skim this, “AI Can Legally Own a Company! ”

Which begs the question laid out in the article, "What's the legal identity of the AI system?" Today, on the planet, there isn't a legal identity framework for this. Yet, it's much more complicated and worse than this. Why?

AI Can Reside on the Edge

Skim this article, “Decentralized AI – Risks, Legal Identity, Consent & Privacy ”. So, it's not just something like ChatGPT. Yet, it's even more complicated than this. Why?

AI Leveraged, Smart Human Digital Identities

Skim this article, “AI Leveraged Smart Digital Identities of Us ”. One doesn't have to be a brain surgeon to see a massive emerging paradigm shift as AI is applied to creating smart human digital identities. It's full of risks, ethics and...job losses.

Political Hills To Die Upon

All the above cries out for a new legal identity framework for AI systems, bots and humans. Legal identity is frequently managed at local state/provincial level and not national. Thus, there are literally hundreds of such jurisdictions on the planet, each wanting to protect their jurisdictional turf. Thus, this is the major political hill the letter's signatories will die upon.

Not quite 8 years ago, when I began working my way through requirements to create a new legal identity architecture, I saw this as the main obstacle. I knew whatever framework I created, it must allow local jurisdictions to still be in control, but work, instantly, globally.

Legal Identity Framework For AI Systems, Bots and Humans

Skim these docs:

Rapid Rate of Change

Look at this curve produced by my friend Pat Scannell . IT MEANS THE FOLLOWING:

  1. We can no longer cognitively, socially, business or politically keep up with the rate of tech change.
  2. Any ethics framework created must be able to rapidly be changed as the tech advances at a logarithmic pace - this is something we're not good at creating such legal and ethic structures
  3. The Evil Inc.'s and the Malicious States, will leverage the tech change curve to the hilt to create new attack vectors against the AI, and us leveraging it.

THUS, ANY LEGAL IDENTITY FRAMEWORK CREATED FOR AI SYSTEMS AND HUMANS MUST BE CONTINUALLY PROTECTED - this is something today, only the largest countries and companies on the planet have the resources, expertise and budgets to defend with i.e., the rest of us don't.

Which Is Why The Architecture Calls Out For a New, Global, Independent, Well-Funded Non-Profit

It's job is to do 24x7x365 threat analysis against not only the tech used in the legal identity framework. but also against the governance, business processes and end users- be they humans, AI systems, or bots. A high threat must re responded to within hours by governments, companies, enterprises, people and AI systems or bots.

It's All This Down in the Weeds Stuff That Isn't Being Talked About

I agree ethics and risks should be discussed and applied to AI systems and bots. However, at the end of the day, it must be laid out in laws and regulations, and be enforceable. Without addressing the issues raised above, discussion about AI ethics etc. will be run over by the practical political world we live on.

I think if a new legal framework can be created, it can be enforceable, via trade agreements, allowing cross-jurisdiction enforcement of such laws. Thus, it's a way to slowly restrict the Evil Inc.'s and the Malicious States of the planet, leveraging unethical AI to suit their own ends.

About Guy Huntington

I'm an identity trailblazing problem solver. My past clients include Boeing, Capital One and the Government of Alberta's Digital Citizen Identity & Authentication project. Many of my past projects were leading edge at the time in the identity/security space. I've spent the last eight years working my way through creating a new legal identity architecture and leveraging this to then rethink learning.

I've also done a lot in education as a volunteer over my lifetime.?This included chairing my school district's technology committee in the 90's - which resulted in wiring most of the schools with optic fiber, behind building a technology leveraged school, and past president of Skills Canada BC and Skills Canada.

I do short term consulting for Boards, C-suites and Governments, assisting them in readying themselves for the arrival of AI systems, bots and AI leveraged, smart digital identities of humans.

I've written LOTS about the change coming. Skim the?over 100 LinkedIn articles ?I've written,?or my webpage ?with lots of papers.

Quotes I REALLY LIKE!!!!!!:

A 100,000-Foot Level Summary Of Legal Human Identity

  • Each person when they’re born has their legal identity data plus their forensic biometrics (fingerprints, and later when they can keep their eyes open – their iris) entered into a new age CRVS system (Civil Registration Vital Statistics - birth, name/gender change, marriage/divorce and death registry) with data standards
  • The CRVS writes to an external database, per single person, the identity data plus their forensic biometrics called a SOLICT “Source of Legal Identity & Credential Truth).?The person now controls this
  • As well, the CRVS also writes to the SOLICT legal identity relationships e.g. child/parent, cryptographically linking the SOLICTs.?So Jane Doe and her son John will have cryptographic digitally signed links showing their parent/child.?The same methodology can be used for power of attorney/person, executor of estate/deceased, etc.
  • The SOLICT in turn then pushes out the information to four different types of LSSI Devices “Legal Self-Sovereign Identity”; physical ID card, digital legal identity app, biometrically tied physical wristband containing identity information or a chip inserted into each person
  • The person is now able, with their consent, to release legal identity information about themselves.?This ranges from being able to legally, anonymously prove they’re a human (and not a bot), above or below age of consent, Covid vaccinated, etc.?It also means they can, at their discretion, release portions of their identity like gender, first name, legal name, address, etc.
  • NOTE: All consents granted by the person are stored in their SOLICT
  • Consent management for each person will be managed by their PIAM “Personal Identity Access Management) system.?This is AI leveraged, allowing the person, at their discretion, to automatically create consent legal agreements on the fly
  • It works both locally and globally, physically and digitally anywhere on the planet
  • AI systems/bots are also registered, where risk requires it, in the new age CRVS system
  • Governance and continual threat assessment, is done by a new, global, independent, non-profit funded by a very small charge per CRVS event to a jurisdiction to a maximum yearly amount.

A 100,000-Foot Level Summary Of The Learning Vision:

  • When the learner is a toddler, with their parents’ consent, they’ll be assessed by a physical bot for their learning abilities.?This will include sight, sound, hearing and smell, as well as hand-eye coordination, how they work or don’t work with others, learning abilities, all leveraging biometric and behavioral data
  • All consents given on behalf of the learner or, later in the learner’s life by the learner themselves, are stored in the learner’s SOLICT “Source of Legal Identity & Credential Truth”
  • This is fed into a DLT “Digital Learning Twin”, which is created and legally bound to the learner
  • The DLT the produces its first IEP “Individualized Education Plan”, for the learner
  • The parents take home with them a learning assistant bot to assist the learner, each day, in learning.?The bot updates the DLT, which in turn continually refines the learner’s IEP
  • All learning data from the learner is stored in their LDV “Learner Data Vault”
  • When the learner’s first day of school comes, the parents prove the learner and their identities and legal relationship with the learner, via their LSSI devices (Legal Self-Sovereign Identity)
  • With their consent, they approve how the learner’s identity information will be used not only within the school, but also in AI/AR/VR learning environments
  • As well, the parents give their consent for the learner’s DLT, IEP and learning assistant bot to be used, via their PIAM (Personal Identity Access Management) and the learner’s PIAM
  • The schools LMS “Learning Management System” instantly takes the legal consent agreements, plus the learner’s identity and learning information, and integrates this with the school’s learning systems
  • From the first day, each learner is delivered a customized learning program, continually updated by both human and AI system/bot learning specialists, as well as sensors, learning assessments, etc.
  • All learner data collected in the school, is stored in the learner’s LDV
  • If the learner enters any AI/AR/VR type learning environment, consent agreements are created instantly on the fly with the learner, school, school districts, learning specialists, etc.?
  • These specify how the learner will be identified, learning data use, storage, deletion, etc.
  • When the learner acquires learning credentials, these are digitally signed by the authoritative learning authority, and written to the learner’s SOLICT.
  • The SOLICT in turn pushes these out to the learner’s LSSI devices
  • The learner is now in control of their learning credentials
  • When the learner graduates, they’ll be able, with their consent, to offer use of their DLT, IEP and LDV to employers, post-secondary, etc.?This significantly reduces time and costs to train or help the learner learn
  • The learner continually leverages their DLT/IEP/LDV until their die i.e., it’s a lifelong learning system
  • IT’S TRANSFORMATIONAL OVER TIME, NOT OVERNIGHT
