In this special episode of the Spatial Web AI Podcast,Denise Holt reconnects with Katryna Dow, CEO and Founder of Meeco, exactly 10years after their first conversation on Denise's earlier podcast, CollaborativeIQ. That original episode, "Let's Talk: Retaining Ownership of YourPersonal Data | Interview: Katryna Dow of Meeco," aired on March 31, 2015,and addressed early concerns about data privacy and individual data ownership.#dataprivacy #SpatialWeb

A decade later, Katryna, one of the earliest pioneerstackling data privacy and personal digital identity, reflects on how herinitial warnings about data misuse have unfolded and intensified. Having foreshadowedevents like the Cambridge Analytica scandal years ahead of time, she now highlightstechnological advances and shifts toward decentralized systems, the criticalrole of cryptography, decentralized identity, zero-trust architectures, and howthese elements are reshaping our digital lives. Katryna also shares recentmilestones at Meeco, including impactful collaborations across Europe,Australia, and Japan, and explores the emerging implications of AI, digitaltwinning, and the Spatial Web Protocol for privacy, trust, and secure digitalinteractions.

Join this timely discussion to gain valuable insights intohow far we've come, the evolving challenges of data privacy, and the essentialsteps toward building a secure, transparent, and user-controlled digitalfuture.

As a bonus to those who are curious about what we werediscussing ten years ago, the audio of the original interview is attached tothe end of our current conversation.

The Spatial Web: A New Dimension of the Internet and a Technological Awakening for AI | Exclusive Interview with Denise Holt on August 22, 2024 #SpatialWeb #ActiveInferenceAI #HSML

In this exclusive interview and presentation, Denise Holt, founder of AIX Global Media, and leading educator in Active Inference AI and Spatial Web Technologies, discusses the groundbreaking evolution of the Internet into the Spatial Web and the transformative power of Active Inference AI. Hosted by the Gigabit Libraries Network, in association with the International Federation of Libraries Associations and Institutions (IFLA), headquartered in The Hague, Netherlands, this conversation explores how new technologies like HSML (Hyperspace Modeling Language) and HSTP (Hyperspace Transaction Protocol) will enable decentralized AI, ushering in and enabling an entirely new kind of intelligent agent, while bridging all emerging technologies across the internet with a unified common language.

Denise explains how VERSES AI and the Spatial Web Foundation is leading the charge in this paradigm shift by developing and donating the protocol and IP for the Spatial Web to the IEEE, setting the stage for global adoption. This new AI, based on world-renowned neuroscientist, Dr. Karl Friston's Free Energy Principle, mimics biological intelligence, offering sustainable, explainable, and human-governed AI systems. Learn about the potential of the Spatial Web to power Smart Cities, decentralized AI, and autonomous intelligent agents, transforming everything from data privacy to real-time AI decision-making.
