AI at TPAC 2025

Web & AI at W3C

During the Advisory Committee and Community session held in the middle of the TPAC 2025 week for W3C Members and all attendees —in-person and remote— I (Roy Ruoxi Ran) gave an overview of Web & AI at W3C (7-minute video available) where I talked about how W3C is engaging, specifications, community efforts and upcoming activities. My presentation included why AI matters for the web, which W3C groups are contributing to advancing AI, how W3C's horizontals (ethics, security, privacy, accessibility) are shaping the impact of AI, and the W3C Workshop in preparation on AI Agents & the Web Browsers.

I also talked about the new Web & AI Interest Group, a chartered group that was nearing the end of W3C Member review and that we have launched since then. The group aims to provide a forum to explore and discuss how emerging AI-related technologies impact and intersect with the web and consider how the community could collaborate to shape these evolutions for the benefit of web users.
