Janina: still considering questions to be asked of reviewers.

janina: asks whether the complexity management quesiton is the over-arching theme of CTAUR.

Janina: considers highlithing the social considerations section (in the messaging) - how do you understand what we're saying, and should we say more?

Janina: notes the distinction between the collaborative features, and the type of content being edited (text, code, video, etc.).

Janina: suggests asking reviewers whether the distinction has been adequately clarified.

Scott Digital?

AIML in WA

janina: Asks whether ai ml is redundant

raja: Have seen how ml is included; ai is more broad as a subject

raja: But they're so similar

raja: Thinking Wizard of Oz; hard to identify AI that isn't ML

raja: When one thinks ethics, better to sayh ethics in AI as opposed to in ML

janina: Suggest also that we're working in W3C space, so "web" is to be presumed
