The Advanced AI Society is convening a 4-hour working session to:
1️⃣ Map the current standards landscape with lightning updates from leading projects and standards bodies.
2️⃣ Identify overlaps, gaps, and potential collisions.
3️⃣ Prioritize what needs collective focus next — continuity of identity, agent discovery, verifiable payments, registry interoperability, and more.
The gathering will unfold in two parts:
- Part 1 is the mini-conference where we hear from leading protocols in lightning talks and panels.
- Part 2 is the micro-unconference to surface priority areas of work.
