The onAir Network is a human-curated, AI-assisted network of topic hubs that bring together online communities of experts, students, organizations, and other stakeholders … to LEARN more about a field and advance its research-driven knowledge base; DISCUSS key issues and challenges; and CO-CREATE exploring and implementing solutions. A key onair feature is that members control where and how their content and conversations are shared – free from paywalls, algorithmic feeds, or intrusive ads.

The onAir platform and hubs enable members to:

• Control when, where, and how to share their knowledge;
• Find their interest communities & Co-create networks & hubs with them;
• Discover new knowledge & Develop Innovative Solutions;
• Find Common Ground & Make a Difference.

Our Future onAir hub aggregates the best knowledge, people, and organizations seeking to better address challenges related to Nature, Health, Science, Technology, Society, and Nations.  Our support for the People’s Internet hub reflects our commitment to social media that are based on Decentralized Social Network Protocols.

The Future onAir Hub facilitates bringing together futurists, organizations, and other people interested in working together to create positive innovations for the future that benefit all humanity… where everyone has the opportunity to succeed and thrive.

This hub focuses on the study of the future and how people and organizations can Learn about and evolve our knowledge about possible future challenges and issues; Discuss and innovative research and solutions; and Co-create with stakeholders to implement solutions.

We organize these challenges around six topics: Nature, Health, Science, Technology, Society, and Nations.

onAir networks has started a People’s Internet onAir hub  at people.onair.cc that seeks to bring together the leaders and organizations behind the DSNP movement to a common place where they could share their knowledge and collaborate as well as promote their content and new topical networks and hubs.

This People’s Internet hub is based on Project Liberty’s various initiatives and “commitment to building a better internet—where the data is ours to manage, the platforms are ours to govern, and the power is ours to reclaim.”

The AI Policy Hub is focused on bringing together information, experts, organizations, policy makers, and the public to address AI regulation challenges..

If you or your organization would like to curate a post within this hub (e.g. a profile post on your organization), contact jeremy.pesner@onair.cc.

The regulation of artificial intelligence is the development of public sector policies and laws for promoting and regulating artificial intelligence (AI); it is therefore related to the broader regulation of algorithms. The regulatory and policy landscape for AI is an emerging issue in jurisdictions globally, including in the European Union and in supra-national bodies like the IEEE, OECD and others. Since 2016, a wave of AI ethics guidelines have been published in order to maintain social control over the technology. Regulation is considered necessary to both encourage AI and manage associated risks. In addition to regulation, AI-deploying organizations need to play a central role in creating and deploying trustworthy AI in line with the principles of trustworthy AI,  and take accountability to mitigate the risks.  Regulation of AI through mechanisms such as review boards can also be seen as social means to approach the AI control problem.

The US onAir National Hub is the central hub for the US onAir Network of  50 state onAir hubs. The nonpartisan nonprofit Democracy onAir will be overseeing the soft launch of the US onAir Network this fall.

The US onAir Network supports US citizens and their democracy by bringing together information, experts, organizations, policy makers, and the public to facilitate greater engagement in federal, state, and local politics and more civil, positive discussions and collaborations on important issues and governance.

George Mason is building a nexus of collaboration and resources on campus, throughout the region with our vast partnerships, and across the state, called AI²Nexus.

As a model for universities, AI²Nexus is based on four key principles: Integrating AI to transform education, research, and operations; Inspiring with AI to advance higher education and learning for the future workforce; Innovating with AI to lead in responsible AI-enabled discovery and advancements across disciplines; and Impacting with AI to drive partnerships and community engagement for societal adoption and change.

George Mason University is driving rapid AI adoption and advancements across the Commonwealth.

As the largest and most diverse university in Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C., George Mason University is leading the future of inclusive artificial intelligence (AI) and developing responsible models for AI research, education, workforce development, and community engagement within a modern university.

As AI reshapes industries, George Mason combines fearless ideas that harness the technology’s boundless potential to address the world’s grand challenges, while creating guardrails based on informed, transdisciplinary research around ethical governance, regulatory oversight, and social impact.

Led by the university’s inaugural vice president and chief artificial intelligence officer (CAIO) Amarda Shehu with an AI Visioning Task Force, George Mason is reimagining operational excellence in every facet of the university.
