Richard is the author of the book "Rewe aving the Web" which proposes creating a new profession of "Net fiduciarie s\," or tech companies with a legal duty of care\, good faith\, loyalty & confidentiality to their uses (akin to those of a doctor or lawyer). In tu rn\, these trustworthy entities can arm us with advanced “edgetech\,” like authentic personal AI agents which can protect\, enhance\, and promot e our best interests\, both online and offline.\n\n​The GLIAnet alliance is a community of practice led by Estefanie comprised of companies workin g together to put this vision into practice. Through the alliance\, compan ies come together to conduct multidisciplinary research\, create education al campaigns\, support cross-sector collaborations\, and conduct policy ad vocacy.\n\n​This seminar will be especially relevant to folks working on innovating beyond attention economy business models as well as those inte rested in more ethical data privacy policies.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/Metagov/254/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
