Activating the Proof-of-Control market infrastructure for enterprise AI provability
Advanced AI Society
Advanced AI Society is an industry association activating the Proof-of-Control market by making AI provability visible and evaluable to enterprises. We bring together builders of Proof-of-Control solutions, enterprise buyers, standards bodies, and policymakers to align around our mission to establish provability as the foundation for AI governance.
Why now?
If privacy fails, people lose agency.
If portability fails, markets lose competition.
If verifiability fails, institutions lose legitimacy.
When these foundations collapse, AI becomes impossible to govern — no matter how well-intentioned the systems are.
But when we get these foundations right, the AI economy expands with shared prosperity.
Our purpose is to ensure everyone has access to an AI stack that preserves autonomy.
Our Members will be announced on February 2026

Human-Authorized: Summit on Human Agency
Feb. 23, Napa, California
Human-Authorized: The Summit on Human Agency, is a first-of-its-kind gathering focused on an urgent unlock for the coming “agentic” economy: proof of human control over AI.
Human-Authorized is organized by H2H in partnership with Linux Foundation and The Advanced AI Society. We have keynotes from Clay Shirky and Michelle Dennedy and speakers such as Doc Searls, Drummond Reed, Brian Behlendorf, and Chris Giancarlos.
The Advanced AI Society will also be announcing the founding members of the Proof-of-Control Initiative and programming a whole block to feature the Proof-of-Control stack.
This is an invite-only conference.

Davos Panel - How Do We Know We Can Trust the Agents?
January 20, 1:15pm CET, Davos
With our newest member, Edge & Node, we’ve curated a panel to address an unresolved question that will determine whether the agentic economy can scale: in agents: How do institutions, regulators, and enterprises verify observability, control, accountability, and responsibility when AI agents act independently across systems?
As AI agents move from experimentation to autonomous action across clouds, payments, and critical infrastructure, trust is no longer assumed. It must be provable.
We’ll hear from Deputy CLO, Global Head of Policy at Cloudflare - Alissa Starzak, and Co-CEO of Coinbase Institutional - Brett Tejpaul, and CEO of Edge & Node - Rodrigo Coelho.
Moderator:Michael Casey, Chairman, Advanced AI Society

Patchwork: Syncing on AI Standards
On Dec. 10, 2025, we will host an online convening of leading protocols/standards of the AI stack.
For the first time, speakers from leading specification efforts will present and work through gaps together, including ERC-8004, FPP, HCS-14, MCP, A2A, x402, AGNTCY, Trust Over IP, ANS, MIT’s NANDA, NEAR, and others.
If you’re building anything that depends on interoperability — enterprise implementation or governance, identity, registries, payments, routing, trust frameworks, or agent infrastructure — this is a room you should be in.

Data Center Day at MIT ILP
Sept. 30, 2025
The MIT Industrial Liaison Program invited us to present to their data center conference about Proof-of-Control solutions for data centers.
In our presentation, “An AI Portfolio Approach to Computing Infra: Better, Faster, Cheaper in a world of billions of agents, IoT, and humans,” we featured our enterprise-ready members’ solutions for edge scale use cases. We showcased how our members provide cryptographically verifiable sovereignty and more rapid and faster deployment.

Interoperable Agent Registry Standard Project at MIT
July 14-15, MIT Media Labs
The Advanced AI Society (formerly Decentralized AI Society) and MIT Media Lab’s Project NANDA (led by Prof. Ramesh Raskar) have joined efforts to create a Web3 Quilt— an interoperable layer that connects AI-agent registries across Web3 and Web2, preventing the creation of isolated silos and ensuring the future Internet of AI Agents remains open and collaborative.
