New from the OASIS Coalition for Secure #AI (CoSAI): the #AI Incident Response Framework v1.0: https://www.coalitionforsecureai.org/defending-ai-systems-a-new-framework-for-incident-response-in-the-age-of-intelligent-technology/ (Announcement, 29 Oct.)
It's organized around the NIST #incidentresponse lifecycle, but adapted specifically for AI systems that traditional IR tactics weren’t designed to handle.
This guidance isn't platitudes: it comes with actionable playbooks, written in the (OASIS standard) #CACAO structured playbook format, friendly to policy exchange and automation.

We Need To Rewild The Internet 

The internet has become an extractive and fragile monoculture. But we can revitalize it using lessons learned by ecologists.

#ResearchTopic of the day: #VerifiablePresentations of #VerifiableCredentials.

I'm quite fond of these types of credentials & have been following their development for several years now. #CryptographicallySecure digital credentials are the future of privacy-preserving forms of trustworthy proof.

There are so many use cases for them - I'd love to see just about every company & organization start issuing them for any number of things. I want to start my VC collection!
