#### Narrative:

The first part of the meeting was a discussion of money and pay, prompted by issues that have arisen in the WG so far. We were aiming to come to agreement on fairness and accountability, and establish general principles on e.g. late work, illness, non-contribution, etc, and how to distribute rewards/payments in those situations. We acknowledged the need to be flexible and understanding, but also recognised the risk of people taking advantage of too much flexibility, especially around deadlines. We also recognised the importance of people communicating if they won't be able to meet a deadline; and the importance of establishing, at the start of a particular task, exactly how it will be assessed and paid.

Some decisions were made, but further discussion is needed on some issues, so the group agreed to continue to discuss async in the shared doc "Money questions", and to try to reach agreement on outstanding issues at its next meeting.

The group then worked through the issues on the GitHub board.

There is still some disagreement on how the strategy-writing tasks (now in "Done" on the board) should be paid to fairly reflect people's contributions. It was agreed that the Admin team will step in to try to facilitate reaching agreement.

Due to pressure of time in the meeting, we agreed that for the "In progress" tasks, people will update Issues that are assigned to them as needed, rather than going through the whole board in this meeting.

We looked at the "To do" task of interviewing people about their attitudes to AI ethics, and noted that members' proposed interviews add up to around $1,000 over budget. Despite posts in the WG Discord channel asking people to lower their totals, nobody has; so we agreed that the Admin team will amend the suggestions, and post a redraft in Discord for people to agree to or not. We also agreed that training will take place in the first week of September, when everyone is likely to be back from holidays. We also noted that we want to do further interviewing in Q4 2024, so we will include a budget line for interviews in Q4, and people can propose anything that was over budget for Q3 in the next quarter.

We noted that the "AI conversations" budget line we had in the Q3 budget has to be cut, to fit the budget to the current low AGIX price; but again, we will aim to include it as a budget element in Q4.

#### Decision Items:

* For task deadlines, we should avoid Fridays and weekends
  * \[rationale] because there is a natural "grace period" over the weekend - it's pointless to have a deadline on a Friday, since no work is likely to be done over the weekend, so might as well make it midnight on Sunday
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* If someone does no work at all on a task, they should not be paid, even if it's due to illness.
  * \[rationale] The group agreed on a principle of "no work, no pay" in such cases.
  * \[opposing] There was some mention of the idea of sick pay, but we felt that the Ambassador program probably cannot support it at this stage; and we noted that even though it's a cornerstone of some people's cultures, it's alien to others.
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* If someone doesn't do a task assigned to them, we should aim to hear from them before making a decision such as reassigning the task - but we shouldn't wait indefinitely
  * \[rationale] 48 hours after the deadline was suggested as a waiting time, though it was recognised that it might depend on the urgency of the task
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* If someone doesn't take part in a shared task that was assigned to them, their share of the money for it should be split between those who did do the work, rather than going back into the overall pot
  * \[rationale] Working on the principle that if someone drops out, that means more work for the rest of the team, which should be recompensed
  * \[opposing] There was a suggestion that sometimes working alone is easier, not harder - but it was agreed that it's not _less_ work, just work that some people may find easier. It should still be paid.
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* However, we might need to give more thought to _why_ a task is being shared, and be less eager to share tasks out between people unnecessarily. NOTE: this was something of a "lightbulb moment" in the conversation
  * \[rationale] It might not always need to be, and sharing it might be more about an attempt to give everyone a role, than because the task truly needs input from more than one person.
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* On the reason for sharing tasks - we recognised there's a difference between a collaborative task (everyone does a bit of the same thing) and a compound task (each person does a different thing), and it may be important to define which one it is
  * \[rationale] If it's collaborative it’s harder to assess contribution, and we might need to evaluate whether it really needs to be split between sevaral people - but if each team member is doing a different thing, it’s easier to see if Person A has or hasn’t done the part that’s assigned to them
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* It's helpful to establish the principles around payment at the start of a task: what work is expected, what's the deadline, how will it be assessed, what will happen if expectations are not met, how will unused funds be dealt with
  * \[rationale] for clarity and fairness, and to try to avoid arguments later; and because different tasks are different, so there might not be a “blanket” approach that can be used across the board
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* We will comment async on outstanding questions in the "AI Ethics WG: money questions" doc, and return to the discussion in a future meeting
  * \[rationale] because we didn't get through all the issues mentioned in the doc
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup
* The WG admin team (Colleen, Sucre, Love and Vani) will step in to facilitate strategy-writing teams to reach agreement on distributing pay for the strategy writing tasks
  * \[rationale] as it has become clear that there is some dissatisfaction with the current distributions
  * \[effect] affectsOnlyThisWorkgroup

* \[action] Everyone to continue to comment async in the Money Issues doc, and discuss again in a future meeting \[assignee] All Members \[due] 16 September 2024 \[status] todo

ONBOARD NEW MEMBERS/CORE MEMBER ROLL CALL - Two intending members (Photogee and Cjfrankie) were encouraged to keep attending meetings as they have met all but one of the requirements to become Core Members of the Strategy Guild

Ayo highlighted the importance of active involvement in the Strategy Guild and that people can still show interest in facilitating the working document.

THE OUTBOUND WGs/Gs WORKSHOP SOLUTION ADOPTION SESSION - The session focused on discussing how these solutions could be best deployed and adopted by the different WGs, with various representatives providing insights and perspectives on the proposed strategies.

Highlights and takeaways from the Solution Adoption session:

1. In-WG/Guild Solutions discussion: Guilds/WGs representatives were advised to take a few minutes to share the solutions from the workshop at their respective meetings. Also, Adoption should be easier, hence the reason for proper representation of WGs during the 4 days of the workshop
2. Solutions for improving social media engagement and visibility: In a bid to speed up the Substack publication, Writers' WG decided to assign Scribblers to various Guilds/WGs meetings within the program.

* Premium tool subscription and the importance of keyword research, drawing insights from the “AI Cryptography” article by Mikasa.
* The social media MIXpost automation solution which is in the testing phase at R\&D Guild will be used by Video and Writers WGs.
* Content Calendar optimization based on the algorithm suggestions on the best time for social media posts.

3. Solutions roles/tasks and budgeting: Guilds/WGs will decide on this and the Strategy Guild would follow up on the feedback.
4. Solutions Feedback System for the Strategy Guild: Feedback Template and Form (Open/Monthly/Quarterly), and Tracking Sheet.
5. Solutions Audit and Improvement Process/Plan for the Strategy Guild
6. Guilds/WGs have autonomy on whether to adopt these solutions. However, a feedback system will be created to assess the impact of the workshop.

### Governance Workgroup

* Type of meeting: Weekly
* Present: guillermolucero \[facilitator], CallyFromAuron \[documenter], guillermolucero, CallyFromAuron, Olokoji, Advanceameyaw, lord\_kizzy, LadyTempestt, Effiom, esewilliams, Onize, CollyPride

  * [Ambassador Program Budget Planner](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BBogj9rAO52cpdGP3uvp8hAHNa4Qw66lz9JLjSC2yVs/edit?usp=sharing)

#### Narrative:

The meeting discussed the process and timeline for Q4 budget submission and approval.

We resolved comments in the Q4 context-setting doc, and made a minor change to the timeline. We noted

1. that we need to ensure Tevo is aware of the proposed dates;
2. that we need to establish when the list of Core Contributors will be re-calculated, and what the dates for the "opt-in" process for being a Core Contributor will be.

We discussed the context-setting doc's section on valid reasons for objecting, and the idea of asking people not to "nit-pick" small details, but to focus on things that would actually do harm to the Program if they were agreed.

We discussed whether we should say that people who raise objections need to be present at the relevant discussion meetings or not

We discussed how we will keep core contributors engaged and informed through the whole consent process, by sharing short memos that cover which concerns have been addressed so far and which are still outstanding.

We discussed the wording for Guillermo's two infographics: 1) reminding WGs to submit their budgets by 9th Sept and 2) encouraging Core Contributors to take part in the consent process; and agreed that Guillermo and Vani will make final tweaks to the wording as soon as possible

We noted that when the consent process opens, Peter has already said he will contact Core Contributors via DM to encourage them to take part.

We discussed at leangth what should happen if a WG does not submit their budget in time. We recognised that late submission should be strongly discouraged because it holds the whole process up. In previous Quarters, it has been suggested that a WG that does not submit a budget should have to work on their previous quarter's budget - but this time, this would not be workable since the token price is so much lower than it was for Q3, so most WGs' Q3 budgets would be more than we could afford. There has been a suggestion in the past that a WG who submits late should get no budget - but this is not a good idea, especially not for WGs that are "core" to the Program. So we agreed on late submitters getting a minimal budget, the exact amount to be determined by referencing their previous Quarters' budgets and the token price at the time.

We agreed this idea needs to go out to all WG leads - who are all core contributors, so it could be done via the Core Contributor tag - to check they agree with it.

#### Decision Items:

* We agreed a minor amendment to the timeline for Q4 budget approval - see Q4 Context Setting doc
  * \[rationale] mainly to avoid consent forms needing to be sent out on a Saturday.
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* We agreed that for each iteration of the consent process, we will re-post Guillermo's infographic encouraging core contributors to take part.
  * \[rationale] Because in previous quarters, some people only engaged in the first round of consent
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* We agreed that for each iteration of the consent process, when we post Guillermo's infographic, we will also post something to highlight the core concerns that have been raised, plus any response from the relevant WGs
  * \[rationale] because it might encourage core contributors to get involved; they might be finding it difficult to sort through the information and view the concerns in the budget calculator spreadsheet
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* We agreed that we need to document and publicise the process better. First, after each discussion meeting we should put out a memo covering what has been agreed, and which concerns have been addressed/resolved. Second, our archive documentation of discussion meetings needs to specify the concerns raised and the responses that WGs gave.
  * \[rationale] Partly to make it easier for people to see what has been decided without having to read a whole meeting summary, and avoid resolved concerns being raised again in the next consent round. And partly to help with longer-term tracking issues from quarter to quarter. (It has previously been raised, in consent process retrospectives, that we should ensure that concerns raised about a WG in one Quarter are actually addressed in practice in the next Quarter.)
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* We agreed that the "memo" mentioned above should be either a doc, or a link to the meeting summary in the Archives, and it should be linked in the next iteration of the consent form, so people can see at a glance which concerns have already been addressed. We noted that the Governance WG has budget that could pay a documenter to do this additional task.
  * \[rationale] To make it easier for people to keep track of the whole process, and to avoid concerns being resubmitted when they have already been addressed.
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* We agreed that this meeting thinks that if a WG does not submit their budget in time, they will be removed from the consent process and allocated a minimal budget for Q4, which will be worked out by using the operational element of their previous budgets as a reference (i.e. the budget element for actually running the WG - meetings, facilitation, documentation etc).
  * \[rationale] To avoid issues that have arisen in the past when WGs don't submit in time, where others have had to decide what to submit on their behalf
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* Further to the above, we agreed that this idea should be shared in the Ambassador General Discord channel and the Decision-to-be-Made Discord channel to all WG leads using the "Core Contributor" tag (all WG leads are Core Contributors, as far as we know)
  * \[rationale] To check that there are no objections to this approach of those who submit their budget late being removed from the consent process and being allocated a minimal budget
  * \[opposing] There were several caveats but no actual objections
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* We decided that it would be best for the context-setting doc to say that it is useful (but not mandatory) for objectors to be present at discussion meetings
  * \[rationale] Mainly because people are not always clear in what they write, so it can help if they are present when it is discussed
  * \[opposing] There was a suggestion that an ideal consent process should be designed so objections can be discussed even if the objector is not present - but we recognised that in practice, in past iterations, it has helped to have the objector present.
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople
* We agreed that when the time comes to start reminding Core Contributors to take part in the Q4 consent process, it would be useful if all WGs could mention it at the start of their meetings
  * \[rationale] to ensure that the info is shared widely, and reaches people where they are.
  * \[effect] mayAffectOtherPeople

#### Narrative:

The meeting started with Duke welcoming everyone, then he shared the meeting agenda. Duke, Lady Tempestt, Yemi Solves, Lord Kizzy, Emmanuel, Ngala, and Tert extended their greetings in their native languages.

The minutes of the last meeting were agreed.

AI Ethics EXPO: Duke mentioned that during the last AI Ethics WG meeting, we presented our update and to furthermore reach out to the prospective speakers we expect from them. He stated that we are to produce two speakers (Ubio Obu, who is part of the Ambassador program and is an AI and blockchain expert, and John Obidi, who is not in the program but is one of our partners for our Deep Funding proposal (he is the founder of Head Start Africa which is one of our industry partners for our Deep Funding proposal that has been funded). Duke also stated that we are expecting to have Leeloo Rose (speaking on AI Ethics) and either Haley Lowy or Esther Galfalvi (speaking on AI Governance) from the GEI (Global AI Ethics Initiative).

Budget reduction for Q3: Due to the token merger and the drastic drop in AGIX, we need to reduce our budget. Duke proposed the idea of taking a break to save funds, while Kateri suggested updating our weekly meetings to a biweekly schedule. Lady Tempestt recommended pushing some items from this quarter to the next, and Lord Kizzy echoed Kateri's suggestion but proposed biweekly meetings only for this quarter. Duke initiated the WG budget discussion, but due to time constraints, he recommended scheduling another call focused entirely on budgeting.

Do we need a core contributor role/tag? Duke clarified what a core contributor role/tag was, he explained that any person who is a core contributor in the Guild will more naturally have a higher stake in the affairs of the African Guild. He went ahead and said it could be a core contributor role or just any other role within the Guild that we can use. Lady Tempestt said that we need to firstly describe the role in order for us to get the right tags for the role. Duke further clarified that he values people who are more active in terms of presence and contribution.

Documentation circle and operation: Clement presented the documentation roster and explained it. He further clarified that the names listed are not fixed and will be updated regularly. Several suggestions were made regarding the core team, review team, and documentation circle.

#### Decision Items:

#### Narrative:

The meeting kicked off with Kenichi welcoming everyone to the meeting, which was facilitated by CJ Frankie. We started by checking the action items from the last meeting. Kenichi shared updates on the Zealy sprint: the current sprint has ended and the next one will start by next week. CJ Frankie raised security issues with duplicated and banned accounts on Zealy.

CJ Frankie and Mikasa apologized for the delay in reviewing Zealy quests from the last sprint.

Town Hall Updates on 27th Aug will cover: ✅Scribblers signposting to WGs they are not familiar with to aid monthly substack. ✅ Zealy sprints update.

Test results: Eve passed, and there are no concluded results on other pupils.

SEO and Keyword Research: Should we make use of it to enhance our articles' reach? There are free and paid tools available. CJ Frankie suggested using keyword research on what is currently trending. MerryMan suggested incorporating words or media people search for into our articles and internal linking. Ines suggested we define what SEO is all about, and try different ways of writing articles such as “how to" articles or articles with shorter lengths. Gorga said that with trending articles we have to make topics to educate and make people curious, such as education on how AI works in science and math and related to tutorial topics about AI.

#### Decision Items:

* We agreed to have Scribblers and Scribes aggregate the WWG tests whenever there is one and give results without having to wait for Kenichi to do so.
