MyZubster has reached an important transition point.

What began as an open-source ecosystem connecting community participation, artificial intelligence, blockchain and visual storytelling is now entering a more structured phase: institutional dialogue, documented pilots and independently verifiable technical evidence.

During the last few days, we:

Here is the complete update.

MyZubster received an official communication from the Technical Secretariat of the Committee of AI Experts through the Italian Digital Agency domain, `agid.gov.it`.

The invitation was communicated on behalf of Professor Gianluigi Greco, Coordinator of the Committee established within the Presidency of the Council of Ministers to support the update of Italy’s National Artificial Intelligence Strategy for 2026–2028.

MyZubster was invited to participate in an online institutional hearing scheduled for September 22, 2026.

The purpose of the hearing is to collect qualified contributions, experiences and proposals that may support the Committee’s work.

We accepted the invitation and confirmed our participation.

This is an opportunity to contribute to an institutional discussion. It must not be interpreted as government endorsement, funding, certification or a formal partnership.

To prepare for the hearing, MyZubster submitted four documents:

A concise presentation of the ecosystem, its principles, technical components and current maturity.

A structured overview of possible applications involving responsible AI, environmental data, circular economy, accessibility and public-interest services.

Recommendations covering transparency, human oversight, open-source infrastructure, privacy, interoperability and verifiable public workflows.

The official form requested by the Technical Secretariat, completed with MyZubster’s contribution.

The documents were sent directly to the Secretariat and stored in the project’s controlled documentation archive.

Members of the broader LIFE, academic and research network were also informed about the invitation.

Our contribution will focus on a simple principle:

AI systems used in public-interest contexts should make it possible to distinguish what was generated, what was measured, what was verified and what remains uncertain.

The main topics include:

The objective is not to present AI as an autonomous authority.

AI should help people understand information, coordinate work and detect inconsistencies while leaving consequential decisions to authorized human participants.

MyZubster also completed its first real blockchain anchor for the AHP traceability prototype.

The transaction was confirmed on Base Sepolia:

```
Network: Base Sepolia
Chain ID: 84532
Transaction:
0x6dcf39faac6d1eabbaf0e6857ae329d41a1de74cf8320f8f9f048a2dca7ce649
Status: CONFIRMED
Simulated: false
```

The implemented workflow can:

This is a real technical result, but its meaning must remain precise.

A blockchain transaction can demonstrate that a specific digest existed by a certain point in time. It cannot independently demonstrate that a collection, transport, treatment or recycling operation occurred correctly.

Physical claims still require:

Blockchain supports integrity. It does not replace verification.

The traceability architecture is being explored as a possible foundation for pilots involving absorbent hygiene products and controlled healthcare-waste streams.

A future event chain may include:

`DESIGN_VERSION_PUBLISHED`;` LOT_CREATED`;` LOT_SUPPLIED`;` COLLECTION_RECORDED`;` TRANSPORT_TRANSFERRED`;` TREATMENT_ACCEPTED`;` TREATMENT_COMPLETED`;` FRACTION_RECOVERED`;` DESTINATION_CONFIRMED`;` CORRECTION_ISSUED`;` ANCHOR_PUBLISHED`.
Every event should contain a pseudonymous actor identifier, timestamp, measurement method, evidence hash and digital signature.

Errors should not be silently overwritten. A correction must be represented by a new event referencing the previous record.

The model remains a pilot proposal. MyZubster does not currently claim to operate, certify or independently validate healthcare-waste recycling.

Personal and health data must never be placed on a public blockchain.

This includes:

Sensitive evidence remains off-chain under controlled access and retention rules.

The blockchain receives only minimal, non-personal integrity proofs, such as a Merkle root.

A QR or NFC identifier may connect a controlled container or batch to a verification page, but it must use a random token that does not reveal a person’s identity or health condition.

We configured Google OAuth for MyZubster and successfully activated consent-based Gmail synchronization.

The integration uses the read-only Gmail permission:

```
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly
```

Automatic synchronization requires:

Mailbox access and platform authentication should remain separate.

A person must be able to use MyZubster without connecting Gmail. Gmail access should be requested only when a feature genuinely requires it.

The integration must not publish private messages or use them as public evidence without specific authorization.

GitHub OAuth was configured for identity onboarding with limited scopes:

```
read:user
user:email
```

The flow allows MyZubster to:

No repository-write permission is requested.

This creates a foundation for connecting verified GitHub identities to MyZubster profiles and metaverse characters while keeping technical identity separate from fictional narrative identity.

Visual storytelling remains an important part of the project.

New visual chapters now cover:

Relevant GitHub repositories were updated, including:

`space-station`;` I-ECO-01`;` urban-lab-nurse`;
The README files now connect the images to their technical context.

Each visual is classified carefully:

An illustration can explain an architecture. It cannot prove implementation, certification, partnership or environmental impact.

One of the newest visual chapters is titled “From the Stars to Earth.”

The Space Station represents MyZubster’s wider narrative environment: distributed intelligence, simulation, artificial entities and long-term systems thinking.

But the story ultimately returns to real communities and territories.

Technology matters only when it helps people:

The fictional environment gives us a language for imagining possibilities. GitHub, operational records and independent verification provide the evidence.

The institutional hearing and submitted documents may support several future directions.

MyZubster can share practical lessons about consent, provenance, human oversight and transparent AI-assisted workflows.

The documentation can support small demonstrations involving circular water systems, environmental monitoring, absorbent hygiene products and public-interest services.

Universities and research organizations could help define methodologies, evaluate results and distinguish measured outcomes from estimates.

Public administrations could evaluate limited, reversible pilots with explicit governance, privacy and procurement boundaries.

Institutional feedback can help refine the future LIFE proposal, consortium structure, indicators, responsibilities and pilot acceptance criteria.

MyZubster can explore shared event schemas, signatures, evidence hashes and verification interfaces that do not depend on a single blockchain or platform.

Developers can contribute tests, adapters, accessibility improvements, documentation, threat models and verification tools.

None of these opportunities is guaranteed.

They depend on technical review, qualified participants, governance, funding, legal assessment and formal commitments.

The next steps are:

MyZubster is experimental.

Some components are implemented. Some have been tested. Some are documented proposals. Others belong to the project’s fictional universe.

Our responsibility is to keep those categories visible.

The goal is not to use AI, blockchain, sustainability or the metaverse as labels.

The goal is to build systems where people can inspect the evidence, understand the limitations and participate in improving the result.

MyZubster is moving from narrative and prototypes toward structured, verifiable and independently reviewable pilots.

The next step is to turn institutional interest into clear questions, measurable experiments and documented collaboration.
