To:
Hi everyone,
I'm thrilled to welcome you to the *Speculative F(r)iction in Generative AI*
<https://speculativefriction.org/events> event coming up this Friday.
Together with Tyler (T) Munyua we will facilitate an interactive and
experimental session together with our panelists (see their bios below).
To make the discussion more concrete and tangible we'll focus on the use of
AI in healthcare and engage with a science fiction approach to
interrogating the present state of *governing* such AI systems and how they
might change the interactions between patients and clinicians. To allow
ourselves to imagine and experience the consequences and implications of
possible futures, we will play with a design fiction world where *every AI
agent needs to have a social license
<https://bobi-rakova.medium.com/the-ai-social-license-9d5ed4dc1815> in
order to operate*. Excited to explore this speculative fiction artifact
together on Friday and in the meantime ...
I'm sending you this quick email to share an invitation for you to bring a
wellness artifact to the event. Please think of any kind of physical object
that you might interact with to boost your wellness.
Panelists bios:
- Gemma Petrie - Principal Researcher at Mozilla focused on the
intersection of people, competition, and policy. Her research explores the
dynamics of the internet ecosystem in order to advocate for technology that
puts people first. Recent projects have explored how design frictions like
browser choice screens can improve transparency, give people meaningful
agency, and help them make choices that better align with their
preferences.
- Sophia Bazile - Futures Literacy and Foresight practitioner interested
in capacity-building for transformative inner, organizational, and wider
sociocultural change. Her approaches are multi-/trans-/interdisciplinary,
rooted in decolonial praxis, and commitment to collective un/learning
through perpetual experimentation. She has designed, curated, and convened
inquiries around how technologies* facilitate reciprocal relationships
between planetary beings—and the kinds of imagined and imposed
relationships they amplify, disrupt, or inhibit.
- Richmond Y. Wong - an Assistant Professor of Digital Media at Georgia
Tech's School of Literature, Media, and Communication. He directs the
Creating Ethics Infrastructures Lab where his research seeks to create
social, cultural, and organizational environments that can support
technologists and designers in ethical decision-making. This includes
creating design approaches that propose alternate ways to consider human
values, supporting worker and community-led actions, improving
organizational ethics review practices, and understanding the role of law
and policy. Recent projects include studying the technology workers’
organizational practices related to ethics, and creating design activities
to help people talk through issues related to privacy and surveillance.
Thank you! We are all thrilled and excited to connect during the panel and
workshop on Friday. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any
questions.
With kind regards,
Bogdana (Bobi)

Subject: Request for Comment & IPR Review: PCTF Authentication Final Recommendation V1.1 / Demande de commentaires et d’examen des droits de propriété intellectuelle : Recommandation finale pour la composante « Authentification » V1.1 du CCP
Français à suivre
Notice of Intent: DIACC is collaborating to develop and publish the Authentication component of the Pan-Canadian Trust Framework (PCTF) to set a baseline of public and private sector interoperability of identity services and solutions. During this public review period, DIACC is looking for community feedback to ensure that the conformance criteria is clear and auditable.
To learn more about the Pan-Canadian vision and benefits-for-all value proposition please review the Pan-Canadian Trust Framework Overview<https://diacc-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/28zd0TGbiQXtMGiyCf0-eBSKmMAaDA7Pap…>.
Document Status: These review documents have been developed by members of the DIACC’s Trust Framework Expert Committee<https://diacc-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/2JVjj0zymk3OgdDAlfKJ2df4-8B1J0E6aq…> (TFEC) who operate under the DIACC controlling policies and consist of representatives from both the private and public sectors. These documents have been approved by the TFEC as Draft Recommendations V1.0.
Summary:
The PCTF Authentication Component defines:
1. A set of processes that enable access to digital systems.
2. A set of Conformance Criteria for each process that, when a process is shown to be compliant, enable the process to be trusted.
Invitation:
• All interested parties are invited to comment.
Period:
• Opens: January 16, 2024 at 23:59 PT | Closes: February 15, 2024 at 23:59 PT
When reviewing the components Conformance Criteria, please consider the following and note that responses to this question are non-binding and serve to improve the PCTF.
1. Would you consider the Conformance Criteria as auditable or not? That is, could you objectively evaluate if an organization was compliant with that criteria and what evidence would be used to justify that?

Value to Canadians:
The purpose of the PCTF Authentication Component is to assure the on-going integrity of login and authentication processes by certifying, through a process of assessment, that they comply with standardized Conformance Criteria. The Conformance Criteria for this component may be used to provide assurances:
• That Trusted Processes result in the representation of a unique Subject at a Level of Assurance that it is the same Subject with each successful login to an Authentication Service Provider.
• Concerning the predictability and continuity in the login processes that they offer or on which they depend.
All participants will benefit from:
• Login and authentication processes that are repeatable and consistent (whether they offer these processes, depend on them, or both).
• Assurance that identified Users can engage in authorized interactions with remote systems.
Relying Parties benefit from:
• The ability to build on the assurance that Authentication Trusted Processes uniquely identify, at an acceptable level of risk, a Subject in their application or program space.
Context:
The purpose of this review is to ensure transparency in the development and diversity of a truly Pan-Canadian, and international, input. In alignment with our Principles for an Identity Ecosystem<https://diacc-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/2ksQhMCqNZdn6rnZ9QzKU29MFfDmfnXdTS…>, processes to respect and enhance privacy are being prioritized through every step of the PCTF development process.
DIACC expects to modify and improve these Draft Recommendations based upon public comments. Comments made during the review will be considered for incorporation into the next iteration and DIACC will prepare a Disposition of Comments to provide transparency with regard to how each comment was handled.

Valeur pour les Canadiens
La composante « Authentification » du CCP vise à assurer l’intégrité continue des processus de connexion et d’authentification en certifiant, au moyen d’un processus d’évaluation, qu’ils sont conformes aux critères de conformité uniformisés. Les critères de conformité pour cette composante peuvent être utilisés pour fournir des assurances :
• Comme quoi les processus de confiance donnent la représentation d’un sujet unique à un niveau assurant qu’il s’agit du même sujet à chaque connexion réussie auprès d’un fournisseur de services d’authentification.
• En ce qui concerne la prévisibilité et la continuité des processus de connexion qu’ils offrent ou dont ils dépendent.
Tous les participants bénéficieront de :
• Processus de connexion et d’authentification qui sont répétitifs et uniformes (qu’ils offrent ces processus, dépendent d’eux ou les deux).
• L’assurance que les utilisateurs identifiés peuvent prendre part à des interactions autorisées avec des systèmes à distance.
Les parties dépendantes bénéficieront de :
• La capacité de tirer parti de l’assurance comme quoi les processus de confiance de l’authentification identifient d’une manière unique, à un niveau de risque acceptable, un sujet dans la sphère de leur application ou programme.
Contexte
Cet examen a pour but d’assurer la transparence de l’élaboration et de la diversité d’un apport véritablement pancanadien et international. Conformément à nos principes pour un écosystème de l’identité<https://diacc-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com/2UMztnwll9w8ucFCqy6LOFfMh82fYc8j7u…>, la priorité est accordée aux processus visant à respecter et à renforcer la vie privée à chaque étape du processus de développement du Cadre de confiance pancanadien.
Le CCIAN s’attend à modifier et à améliorer ces recommandations finales en fonction des commentaires du public. Les commentaires faits pendant l’examen seront pris en compte pour être intégrés dans la prochaine itération et le CCIAN préparera un document expliquant d’une façon transparente comment chaque commentaire a été traité.

*Before we will tackle*
*USE CASES* *with Tom*, we will start with a follow up session from two
weeks ago with Jorge Flores, with ENTIDAD. Jorge will be joining RIUP WG,
and today he will be sharing with us how he and his colleagues have reached
out and engaged rural communities, farmworkers and their ecosystems. I
envision we will hear some proven and basic take-away themes regarding
ground level engagement; first steps in building trust using core
technology.
May all have a good afternoon and evening, enjoy family and friends,

SolutionSeparated Communities
There are many reasons why some people choose, or are forced, to live
separated from the dominant social order. These include historical,
language, religion, economic, family or other social structures that are
more congenial or accepting of their own identity. Since the dominant
social order typically has the political and economic power to structure
society to their own best interests, those living apart are seldom able to
exercise their own rights as they choose. Specifically excluded from this
category are those people rich enough to travel where and when they desire.
Separated communities are found in all nations large enough to give them
the space to form. Some such communities include:
-
indigenous where a foreign people have taken their land in the Americas
and elsewhere,
-
homeless or street people who do have have a safe place to call home,
-
Roma of Europe and Travelers of Ireland, among others that chose to roam,
-
Uyghurs of China, Rohingya of Burma, Catalans of Spain and other
stateless nations <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stateless_nation>,
-
any rural population in an industrialized country that chose a quiet,
familiar location.
Each Subject Needs
-
Privacy, meaning the right to be let alone, as they often do not want to
be assimilated
-
Access to the same rights and privileges as the bulk of the nation’s
people where they live
