Weigh in on the Desirable Properties
If you represent Human Change, confirm the source URLs, then open the Desirable Properties tab and leave a patch idea where the property text misses what your public work already argues.
These directions are generated from Human Change's public corpus, not from private landing pads. Each one is a hypothesis. Follow the interest that feels like your work. The Hermes prompt and Discuss link are real contribution paths, not a brochure.
DP8 · hypothesis
Collaborative Environment and Meta-Communities
Your stated mission ("From improved learning, better mental health to encouraging face-to-face interactions and safer spaces, smartphone free schools are making room for children’s healthier development.") sits next to DP8's human issue: Online communities constantly restart. Guiding question: How do communities persist beyond platforms?
Direction to explore
How do Alliance members share a collaboration space without collapsing into one platform community?
Candidate patch idea
Define meta-communities as optional shared rooms with explicit consent, not an ambient social network that harvests the Alliance listserv.
DP20 · hypothesis
Community Ownership
Your stated mission ("From improved learning, better mental health to encouraging face-to-face interactions and safer spaces, smartphone free schools are making room for children’s healthier development.") sits next to DP20's human issue: Platforms own everything users create. Guiding question: Who should own the next layer of the Internet?
Direction to explore
This is the anti-capture test: can Human Change's coordination space stay owned by people if commercial players arrive later?
Candidate patch idea
Strengthen anti-capture language: community rules and exit rights are written before large commercial platforms are invited to play.
DP11 · hypothesis
Safe and Ethical AI
Your stated mission ("From improved learning, better mental health to encouraging face-to-face interactions and safer spaces, smartphone free schools are making room for children’s healthier development.") sits next to DP11's human issue: AI hallucinations and harmful outputs. Guiding question: What does trustworthy AI actually look like?
Direction to explore
If Labs ships AI products, which safety claims belong in DP11 versus product policy?
Candidate patch idea
Require glass-box disclosure when AI drafts norms that later bind a community, including this briefing itself.
DP13 · hypothesis
AI Containment
Your stated mission ("From improved learning, better mental health to encouraging face-to-face interactions and safer spaces, smartphone free schools are making room for children’s healthier development.") sits next to DP13's human issue: AI manipulation and agent overreach. Guiding question: How do we keep AI helpful without letting agents overreach?
Direction to explore
What containment is needed before protocol-adjacent AI agents act in a shared layer?
Candidate patch idea
Sandbox agent write-access until a named human steward accepts the action against an ML-REQ.
DP14 · hypothesis
Trust and Transparency
Your stated mission ("From improved learning, better mental health to encouraging face-to-face interactions and safer spaces, smartphone free schools are making room for children’s healthier development.") sits next to DP14's human issue: Misinformation, propaganda, and deepfakes. Guiding question: How do we rebuild trust in an AI-powered Internet?
Direction to explore
How should Human Change show when Hermes inferred from public pages versus when a human confirmed?
Candidate patch idea
Require provenance on AI-assisted governance artifacts: source URLs, confirmations, and remaining hypotheses.
DP12 · hypothesis
Community-based AI Governance
Your stated mission ("From improved learning, better mental health to encouraging face-to-face interactions and safer spaces, smartphone free schools are making room for children’s healthier development.") sits next to DP12's human issue: AI rules decided by companies. Guiding question: Who should decide how AI behaves in our communities?
Direction to explore
Who ratifies AI-assisted policy when Institute, Labs, and Alliance members disagree?
Candidate patch idea
Bound AI assistance so communities can reject a draft without losing the human deliberation record.
