- The Human Root of Trust is a framework for cryptographic accountability in autonomous agent systems.
- Digital systems traditionally assume human presence, but AI agents now operate autonomously, challenging this assumption.
- Regulators, counterparties, and auditors will demand accountability for AI agent actions, requiring traceability to human principals.
- The framework is public domain, with no rights reserved, encouraging widespread adoption and improvement.
- Security engineers, cryptographers, lawyers, and implementers are invited to refine and build upon the framework.
- The core principle is that every agent must trace back to a human.
