I believe the time has come for an independent institute to track AI and Big Data technology applications and begin creating guidelines for both industry self-certification and regulation. The other paths available, ignoring it, fearmongering about it, and trying to fit it into other political movements, do not seem to me to be heading towards an acceptable outcome. It has to be a technology-heavy group, otherwise it won't create much value. It also has to be grounded in history, philosophy, and political science, otherwise it'll just be reactionary. And we have enough reactionary groups already.
