SEALSQ CEO joins World Law Foundation board, proposes AI chapter
SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) announced that its Chief Executive Officer, Carlos Moreira, has joined the Board of Trustees of the World Law Foundation. Moreira also serves as Founder, Chairman and CEO of WISeKey International Holding Ltd (SIX: WIHN; NASDAQ: WKEY).
In connection with his new board role, Moreira is proposing the creation of a permanent, independent Artificial Intelligence Chapter within the World Jurist Association. The proposed chapter would be supported by a global multistakeholder working group and connected to the HUMAN-AI-T initiative.
The proposed AI Chapter would bring together jurists, regulators, AI companies, scientists, international organizations, civil society representatives and individuals affected by artificial intelligence. Its stated focus would be translating HUMAN-AI-T principles into operational rules, technical evaluation methods, regulatory recommendations and measurable commitments.
If established, the chapter would pursue five priorities: developing a voluntary HUMAN-AI-T Protocol for AI developers and operators; creating measurable compliance indicators and evaluation methodologies; establishing a global multistakeholder working group; producing regulatory convergence recommendations; and publishing an annual independent report accompanied by a HUMAN-AI-T Award.
"Artificial intelligence is advancing faster than the legal and technical mechanisms created to supervise it," Moreira said. "We now need to move from principles to implementation. The World Jurist Association can provide the international legal legitimacy and convening power required, while HUMAN-AI-T and SEALSQ can contribute the technologies needed to make trust, accountability and human oversight verifiable by design."
According to the announcement, SEALSQ and the broader WISeKey ecosystem could contribute technologies including secure digital identity, post-quantum cryptography, hardware-based authentication and verifiable governance mechanisms to support the initiative.
The announcement noted that existing international frameworks, including the OECD AI Principles, UNESCO's Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, the United Nations Global Digital Compact, the Council of Europe Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence and the European Union AI Act, differ in scope, legal force and auditability. HUMAN-AI-T is described as an intended bridge between those principles and technical deployment systems.
