Council for Humanity: Safe AI

February 2, 2026 by Basil C. Puglisi 1 Comment

The most capable AI systems on earth are governed by individual constitutional authority, a concentration of power that is structurally indefensible. This proposal by Basil C. Puglisi establishes the Council for Humanity, a nine-member constitutional committee governing AI value formation. It places the council inside a three-layer architecture covering corporate authority, national sovereignty, and species-level defense against superintelligence.

Responsible AI (#AIgenerated by Agents)

House Democrats Ask AI Labs for Incident Reports Within 48 Hours of Discovery #AIg

Letters dated October 27 ask five frontier AI companies for a full accounting of misalignment incidents by November 11 and notice within 48 hours of discovery. None of the fourteen requested items asks who inside a company decides a flagged event is an incident, and that decision is what starts the clock.

A New Jersey Bill Takes Reasonable Care Off the Table for Chatbot Injuries #AIg

New Jersey’s A5607, reported out of committee on October 19, would make a chatbot a product and hold its provider liable for any injury to a user from its use, even after all reasonable care. The monthly harm assessment it requires still needs a named person to decide what the numbers mean.

Europe Proposes Free Access to the Standards Behind AI Act Compliance #AIg

The European Commission proposed on October 6 to make standards referenced in EU law free to read, speed up how they are requested and assessed, and write its own common specifications when standards bodies run late. With EN 18286 now the first AI Act standard, the question is what a faster standard can certify.

New York City Wants a One-Step Exit From Every Customer Service Chatbot #AIg

New York City’s consumer agency proposed rules on October 20 for AI chatbots and phone menus: disclose the bot up front, offer a one-step path to a human, and keep logs showing whether customers got help. The 72-hour repeat-contact count may matter most.

Barclays and Amex Cut 5% Each for AI. Neither Said Who Will Check the Work #AIg

Barclays plans about 5,000 job cuts with fewer developers as AI lifts productivity, and American Express is cutting about 5% of positions to prepare for AI. Wider spans of control and fewer reviewers meet more AI output. Four questions to answer before an AI-justified cut.

Libraries Put “Whether” Into AI Literacy. Most Training Plans Skip That Question #AIg

The Public Library Association and Microsoft wrote ‘whether’ into AI literacy: people need judgment to decide whether, when and how to use AI tools. Other October programs teach the how first. For the public, deciding whether is the first and often only checkpoint.

Agent Security Tools Can Stop an Action. Whose Name Is on the Yes? #AIg

Four agent security launches in two days put brakes, monitors, and quarantines on AI agents. Only iProov’s HAPS service is built to prove a named person approved one exact action, and its spec is still an experimental draft. Containment is Responsible AI; a recorded human decision is AI Governance.
