Last week, the work that I and many others contributed to, “Personhood Credentials: Artificial Intelligence and the Value of Privacy-Preserving Tools to Distinguish Who is Real Online,” was selected to receive the Future of Privacy Forum award. https://lnkd.in/gZTEM93V It was an honor to collaborate with industry leaders from OpenAI, Microsoft, Andreessen Horowitz, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University, University of Oxford and many more on detailing how to create a user-controlled internet where we can tell who's real or not. Across all the divergent viewpoints, we were strongly aligned that these challenges must be addressed using systems that avoid the centralization of power for censorship, and instead promote free speech and user choice. cc Steven Adler, Zoë Hitzig, Catherine Brewer, Renee DiResta, Eddy Lazzarin, Sean McGregor, Divya Siddarth, Wendy Seltzer, Tobin South, Connor Spelliscy, Manu Sporny, Varya Srivastava, Ronnie Falcon, Kim Hamilton Duffy, Shrey J., Claire Leibowicz, Srikanth Nadhamuni, Alan Rozenshtein, Andrew Trask, Lacey Strahm, Zoe Weinberg, Tom Zick, PhD., Eric Ho, Cedric Deslandes Whitney
