  • A Canonical OAII Personal Event Recognition (PER) Event List

    Trustworthy autonomous intelligence begins with explicit event modeling. This post presents a canonical OAII Personal Event Recognition event list for aging in place, showing how meaningful in-home events can be detected, governed, and reviewed without diagnosis, scoring, or hidden judgment. By enumerating events, policies, and boundaries up front, OAII demonstrates how autonomy can remain transparent,…

  • Why Autonomy Must Include the Right to Be Left Alone

    As autonomous systems move into homes and care environments, the ability to pause monitoring, protect private moments, and prevent opaque judgment becomes essential. This post examines the ethical boundary autonomous intelligence must not cross—where care, power, and surveillance intersect—and explains why open, governable models like OAII are the only way to preserve dignity, consent, and…

  • Ethical Routine Awareness Without Diagnosis

    Recognizing changes in everyday routines—such as showering, cleaning, or remembering medication—does not require medical diagnosis or behavioral scoring. This post explains how Personal Event Recognition for aging in place can ethically support routine awareness and forgetfulness detection through explicit consent, configurable policies, and edge-primary processing. Using the OAII / Open SGI model, routine awareness becomes…

  • Checking Keys and Phone Placement After Returning Home

    Misplacing keys or a phone can add unnecessary stress for people aging in place. This post explores a simple, ethical, and edge-primary autonomous intelligence use case: gently checking whether essential items are placed in a designated spot after returning home. It explains affordable devices, how the capability fits into the OAII / Open SGI model,…

  • Why Autonomous Intelligence Needs Open Standards

    Autonomous Intelligence systems don’t just analyze data — they observe, decide, and act in the real world. As these systems move into our homes, cities, and care environments, open standards for interoperability, governability, and accountability become essential. This post introduces OAII’s advocacy series explaining why open, object-oriented models are the foundation of trustworthy, human-centered autonomy.
