Format: Thesis Roundtable, Day 3 of 3 (writing, ≈1h; feeds the Culmination read-out)
Facilitator: Malu Villela
Every session has a clear purpose, a desired outcome, and a shared document for community notes. Participants are invited to add questions, takeaways, disagreements, next steps, sketches, photos, poems, and songs, because truth, beauty, and justice belong together. People following online can contribute too.
These notes feed directly into the Bangkok Theses, a collective document of short statements and propositions on how community-governed AI should be built and governed. Over the three days, participants will distill the arguments, practices, tensions, disagreements, experiences, and commitments emerging across the conference into a shared set of theses. Contributions may be grounded in theory, practice, or lived experience, and disagreement is as welcome as consensus.
Each day, the community notes will be synthesized and brought into the thesis-writing process. Together, we will ask what should be said collectively about ownership, governance, power, extraction, deliberation, solidarity, and the practical alternatives we want to build. The final Bangkok Theses will be read out and published as a shared output of the conference.
