The Human Sovereignty Protocol


Listen Later

Greg Twemlow's article, "The Human Sovereignty Protocol," introduces the concepts of the Personal Ethics Schema (PES) and the Personal Ethics Protocol (PEP) as mechanisms for individuals to maintain control over their identity and decision-making in an AI-driven world. PES is described as a human-authored, machine-readable framework defining one's values and boundaries, while PEP governs how AI agents can access and interpret this schema. Together, PES and PEP form a "human control layer" designed to ensure AI interactions respect human intent and prevent identity distortion. The article outlines different levels of PES-PEP access, from private to verifiable, emphasizing the importance of self-authorship in an age where AI increasingly infers and makes decisions about individuals. Twemlow argues that these protocols are crucial for retaining human sovereignty, providing dignity, and fostering trustworthy AI collaboration. He encourages readers to begin the process of self-reflection and curating their PES as a revolutionary act against digital identity flattening. Read the full article.
