Semantic Governance and Execution Authorization for the Agentic Internet A plan to advance interoperable, machine-readable governance infrastructure enabling AI systems to operate with verifiable authorization, accountable execution, stakeholder transparency, and measurable alignment with human intentions and institutional purposes. This exploratory performance plan extends concepts articulated by Scott Lee regarding AI execution authorization infrastructure together with related dialogue concerning semantic governance, deterministic state systems, computational law, and the vision of the StratML standard: A worldwide web of intentions, stakeholders, and results. The plan is intended to stimulate discussion regarding trustworthy governance architectures for agentic AI systems. ^^ Submitter's Note: It has been compiled by ChatGPT and edited in the form at https://stratml.us/forms/Claude/Part2.html ^^ Scott's LinkedIn posting is available at https://www.linkedin.com/posts/scottyongboklee_the-internet-is-becoming-an-execution-network-ugcPost-7463706269141590016-97hp/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAACRo-wBsB6AJXaqtz06r_wMwIYVUJtr0PM ^^ See also If I Only Had a Brain: Evolving a Prefrontal Core-Text for the Internet ~ https://ambur.net/IfHadBrain.pdf Worldwide Semantic Governance Community A conceptual community of stakeholders interested in trustworthy, interoperable, machine-readable governance infrastructure for agentic systems.
