针对数字化转型中个人主权丧失的问题,提出以人为中心的虚拟可信平台MyVirtualME,通过整合服务与数据,减少数字官僚主义,恢复个人控制权。
AI 中文摘要
工作、行政、健康、出行和社交互动的持续数字化转型正在深刻重塑日常生活,并稳步将控制权从个人转移到大型平台提供商手中。尽管数据常被称为“21世纪的黄金”,但其真正价值是通过访问、整合和利用数据的服务来实现的。如今,个人几乎没有主权:生活事件(例如变更地址、保险、工作或婚姻状况)需要在众多系统间进行碎片化、重复性的交互,使用户感到不堪重负而非被赋能。我们主张从根本上重新思考这一现状,并提出一个名为“MyVirtualME”的虚拟、可信平台,该平台代表人类个体与公司、行政部门及其他行为者进行交互。该平台将服务、数据、权限和数据使用围绕人类而非外部行为者为中心,从而实现真正的控制和透明度。我们的愿景超越了纯粹以数据为中心:在从基本通知到智能助手等可信服务的支持下,MyVirtualME旨在减少数字官僚主义,改进甚至自动化交互,并支持对个人健康、财务和行政状况的知情监督。我们坚信,以人为中心的MyVirtualME对于在数字未来中恢复个人主权至关重要。
英文摘要
The ongoing digital transformation of work, administration, health, mobility, and social interaction is profoundly reshaping everyday life, steadily shifting control from individuals to large platform providers. Although data is often labeled the "gold of the 21st century", its real value is realized through services that access, combine, and exploit it. Today, individuals have little sovereignty: life events (e.g., changing an address, insurance, job, or marital status) require fragmented, repetitive interactions across numerous systems, leaving users overwhelmed rather than empowered. We argue for a fundamental rethinking of this situation and propose a virtual, trustworthy platform, called "MyVirtualME" that acts on behalf of the human individual towards companies, administrations, and other actors. This platform centers services, data, permissions, and data usage around humans, not foreign actors, allowing genuine control and transparency. Our vision goes beyond a pure data focus: supported by trusted services ranging from basic notifications to intelligent assistants, MyVirtualME aims to reduce digital bureaucracy, improve and even automate interactions, and support informed oversight of an individual's health, financial, and administrative situation. We firmly believe that a human-centered MyVirtualME is essential for restoring personal sovereignty in our digital future.
