Invitation to weigh in
Minderoo
We opened a landing pad for Minderoo from public work, not a mission paraphrase.
Minderoo publishes citable work we could quote (Minderoo Centre for Technology & Democracy). This briefing is a hypothesis built from those sources. Tell us if we misread the research, add papers we missed, and weigh in on Desirable Properties tied to that work.
If you represent Minderoo, 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.
Research and policy only change the rule-set when it is linked to original sources. Help us keep this pad tied to your papers and reports, not a press-release summary.
Public packet only. Hypothesis marks stay until you confirm sources. Each Alliance member gets a different pitch so we can experiment. Your pad is https://desirableproperties.org/pad/mctd (hyphens optional). Direct link to this tab: https://desirableproperties.org/pad/mctd?tab=values
Stated mission
Beginning in May 2024 and running for between 12 to 18 months, the BRAID fellowship will support Collett in her research project on the impact of generative AI on novel writing and publishing.
Values to Overweb mappings
Confirm only mappings that match how you use these words. Rejected mappings stay off the next brief.
Collett's project centres on protecting and enhancing the human-centred aspects of creative writing, investigating potential labour impacts, harms, and benefits of GenAI including work displacement, losses and enhancements to imagination, and protections of those whose creative practice could be altered by GenAI through foundation models such as LLMs .
Overweb: Portable human agency (user-controlled identity and data)
Candidate MPA: Export identity and data the person created here, without a platform petition
The research will consist of participatory and co-design methods, collaborating with novelists, publishers, writers societies, policymakers, and tech companies.
Overweb: Transparency of AI and human roles in inquiry
Candidate MPA: Show when Hermes drafted vs when humans confirmed
The process will include focus groups, interviews, and case studies, then culminate in a one-day collaborative forum with approximately 30 stakeholders to co-design policy and design solutions and frameworks, exchange knowledge, and ensure long-lasting buy-in and a legacy network.
