AI agents are making high-stakes decisions right now – trading, diagnosing, contracting – and no governance framework actually works.
I’ve spent 20 years studying governance failures. From hedge funds to DAOs to AI. The pattern is always the same: static rules chasing dynamic systems.
In my new video, I break down why every current approach to AI governance fails structurally, and present the WDAG architecture – a decentralized, dynamic governance framework I’ve developed across three peer-reviewed papers.
Key insight: Centralized safety boards (like OpenAI’s) can be dissolved by the companies they oversee. Decentralized reputation systems can’t.
This is the first in a series of turning my 124+ academic papers into visual explainers.
