Discussion Theme 2: Community Building, Goal Alignment, Calibration, and Shared Standards

  • Group 1:

    • Facilitating broad participation:
      • Reference implementations as starting points
      • Encouraging inquiries even if they seem trivial
      • Potential for LLMs (Large Language Models) to answer basic questions
      • Need for accessibility to common parts and expertise

  • Group 2:

    • Engagement through workshops and active communication strategies
    • Incentives for participation could include more interactive and collaborative platforms

  • Group 3:

    • Building a community lab for various levels of engagement: hobbyists, educational purposes, startups
    • Suggests a focus on community-driven documentation and support for integration

There are not enough mechanisms. I hope AC can potentially help support this important effort beyond NA. ‘Community’ needs to be about breath of engagement.
