Minutes

Attendees:

Animesh Singh (IBM), Maureen McElaney (IBM), Han Xiao (Tencent), Alejandro Saucedo, Mikael Anneroth (Eriksson), Ofer Hermoni (Amdocs)

Animesh will check with Souad Ouali to ensure Orange wants to lead the Principles working group and host regular meetings. Committee members on the call were not included in the email chains that occurred so we need to confirm who is in charge and how communication will occur.

The Technical working group has made progress but nothing concrete to report.

A possible third working group could form around AI Standards.

    Principles, lead: Souad Ouali (Orange France) with members from Orange, AT&T, Tech Mahindra, Tencent, IBM, Ericsson, Amdocs.

    Technical, lead: Romeo Kienzler (IBM Switzerland) with members from IBM, AT&T, Tech Mahindra, Tencent, Ericsson, Amdocs, Orange.

    Working groups will have a weekly meeting to make progress.  First read out to LF AI governing board will be Oct 31 in Lyon France.

    The Principles team will study the existing material from companies, governments, and professional associations (IEEE), and some up with set that can be shared with the technical team for feedback as a first step.  We need to identify and compile the existing materials.

    The Technical team is working on Acuomos+Angel+AIF360 integration demonstration.


    3. Possible Discussion about third working group

  • Discussion about LFAI day in Paris

  • More next steps
    • Will begin recording meetings in future calls.
