Identity Week America - Day 1 @ 14:20
Trusted identity of people and AI ~ Building AI-native digital infrastructure
As AI becomes increasingly embedded in society and industry, we are entering an era in which AI not only supports human activities but also makes decisions, takes actions, and interacts with digital services on behalf of individuals and organizations. In this emerging AI-native world, trust becomes a fundamental requirement. Questions such as Who is acting?, Who is being represented?, and Can identities, information, and decisions be trusted? must be addressed at scale.
This session explores the role of trusted identity as a foundational layer of digital infrastructure for the AI era. While digital identity has enabled significant advances in online interactions, today’s ecosystem remains fragmented across platforms, services, and jurisdictions. At the same time, the rise of AI introduces new challenges around authenticity, accountability, and interoperability.To address these challenges, the session introduces a vision for enabling trusted interactions among people, organizations, AI agents, and digital services through Universal Wallet Infrastructure (UWI). Built on decentralized identity principles and verifiable credentials, UWI aims to empower individuals with greater control over their digital data while supporting secure, interoperable, and trusted exchanges across organizational and national boundaries.Drawing on emerging use cases in education, employment, finance, and mobility, the session will examine how trusted identity can serve as a cornerstone of AI-native digital infrastructure. It will also explore how the convergence of AI, digital identity, and trust technologies can unlock new forms of collaboration, innovation, and value creation.
Trust is not merely a feature of digital systems. It is the infrastructure that will enable the AI-native economy to scale.
