SIGP4B held a Berlin workshop exploring AI adoption curves over 30 years using a Capability Maturity Model framework, where blue teams designed AI adoption strategies progressing from uncontrolled LLM usage to AI-integrated workflows while red teams introduced realistic crises and governance challenges. The update previews two upcoming Summer of Protocols projects: an AI Knowledge Futurama scenario planning exercise and a Bridge Atlas, both building on SIGP4B's business protocol research.

Memory Research Group Six Months

The Memory Research Group convened over six months to read texts about memory in reverse chronological order, from classical techniques through digital AI systems and back to physical substrates, tracing which contemporary memory problems are genuinely new versus recurring under different names. The group met biweekly with interdisciplinary participants from neuroscience, computer science, philosophy, architecture, and design to understand how memory operates differently across contexts rather than develop a unified theory.

2023 Retrospectus

The 2023 Retrospectus is a collection of essays from the Summer of Protocols initiative examining how protocols function across social, economic, and technological domains, featuring contributions on topics ranging from killswitch mechanisms and protocolized economics to memory-making and emergency response systems. The volume presents a multidisciplinary exploration of protocols as generative frameworks for organizing collective behavior, coordination, and cultural production in both digital and physical contexts.

A Very Short Introduction to Memory

The Memory Research Group, a special interest group incubated by Summer of Protocols, launches a monthly series examining memory across disciplines, starting with Frances Yates' classical account of the art of memory. Rather than debating whether machines should automate memorization, the group investigates how contemporary tools reshape our understanding of memory itself, moving beyond surface-level recall toward deeper modes of knowing.
