The potential power of agents can't really be overstated. Systems that in aggregate can change the way we work at basically every level.
People are worried about AI for damn good reasons. AI companies power their business through our private information. But it doesn't have to be that way. Fossil fuel companies do awful things to the earth, but that doesn't make electricity bad. AI companies are evil, but AI isn't bad on its own.
If we want good AI that means good privacy, and good security. It means that a program that is there to record my voice and transcribe it doesn't need to have access to my personal photos. We need models of computing that are designed around consent, and build for small, singular tasks that compose.
That's why the capabilities model is so necessary and we see so much work from different people and projects going into it.
With Smart Contracts, it's necessary. With AI agents, we need it yesterday.

The main idea around object capabilities, decades before cryptocurrencies and all that, was around the idea of so-called "smart contracts", which really boils down to "Code that does financial and legal things on our behalf", and the core takeaway from that was that if you don't have a serious computer security model, there's no real way to do this right.
When I say serious computer security model, for non-tech folks, I don't mean "Install the latest virus scanner.", I mean you need complete assurance that a program that's meant to do one thing can't do something else- not "should not" or "won't try", I mean "can't", as in even if the person who wrote this program is pure evil, the thing they want to do won't happen.
And the best way we know how to do that is the object capabilities model. It's not the only way, but we've learned in the last ~35 years that it's the only practical way.
Now let's talk about AI and LLMs...

I read this article on how easy it is to make an agent and my first thought was "Holy shit that *is* easy". My second thought was "Holy shit, we need object capabilities systems *now* if we're going to live in a world with agents"

Today I set up a recurring donation to #Spritely ! I consider it an investment in a friendlier network connected software stack.
If you're interested in #networking , #decentralization , #infosec , #ocap , or even #web3 , then it's a project worth looking into.
Also their mascots are very cute. -

also found this for #sel4 #microkernel. i havent watched beyond the first lecture yet though, as i keep discovering so many more new concepts. i barely knew "object capabilites" (aka #ocap i think) before this. i thought pausing this and going back to the other series would be worth it.

Are there personal / small community org applications of #operationsResearch? :moomin_hmm:
Something that keeps popping into my mind is: #Cybersyn but #OCAP .
I guess #valueflows is kind of like this? But that's just a vocabulary.
(No, cryptocurrencies are not what I'm looking for.) -

@nonlinear ...anywho it never seemed to me that AP even intended to be an all encompassing "seamless integration between services" but rather just the data exchange amd interaction component...the evolution of RSS into something more fully interactive if you will.
What I think you are envisioning with "seamless integration" probably requires AP plus other open standards like #IndeAuth for authentication, something based on #OCAP like what @cwebber has long been advocating for authorizarion, and some agreed upon extensions to AP (maybe an AS vocabulary too?) to federate social graphs between instances/applications...and maybe for apps requiring better privacy and security we need to look at a rathere differewnt approach like #Veilid

Watched https://layer8.space/@douglascrockford/111382164822243792 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMDHpPN_p08) to see if update on Misty https://crockford.com/misty/ new #ocap language from @douglascrockford (says vaporware in preso, so guess spec-only so far) but interesting, accounting for history, pragmatic but demanding throughout, recommended.
Love Crockford's very low key way of dealing with questionable questions. I can wrap my mind around that!
Hadn't really thought of EDVAC report https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Draft_of_a_Report_on_the_EDVAC being crucial #publicdomain moment...

I'm watching a documentary about a fraud involving multiple shell companies, improper circular ownership and payments, debt avoidance, multinational holdings, and more. I know that I'm showing my #CapabilityTheory and #ActorProgramming / #ocap roots here, but I'm imagining how this fraud would have been prevented by smart contracts.
I'm not talking about blockchains! I'm talking about capability-safe actors -- hunks of program code with limited enumerated rights -- ratifying the clauses of a contract as money and control changes hands. A smart contract could have detected and prevented about half of the improper transactions outright.
