DiGiacomo

The AI governance conversation is aimed at institutions. The crisis is human. No one is talking to the person behind the machine. That is the gap this work fills.

Governance from the inside out.

Cristina DiGiacomo is an AI Philosopher and the founder of 10P1 Inc. Her work asks a question the AI governance conversation has avoided: what kind of person do you need to become to steward something this powerful?

That question is the load-bearing wall of two bodies of work. The 10+1 Code™, a moral framework for human-AI co-existence. Systems Ethics, the discipline of embedding moral clarity into the structure of decisions.

Moral Framework

The 10+1 Code™

Eleven principles for how we live, build, and lead with artificial intelligence. A standard for human-AI co-existence that operates at the human level. Not the institutional one.

Discipline

Systems Ethics

Ethics is not what you say. It is what your systems produce. Systems Ethics embeds moral clarity into decision architecture: incentives, defaults, authority, automation. So responsibility holds under pressure.

Philosopher who founded a company.

Cristina DiGiacomo has fourteen years of philosophical study and over two decades of digital innovation experience. She is not an outsider critiquing AI from a distance. She builds things. She has worked inside institutions. She knows how decisions actually get made.

That combination, philosopher plus builder plus insider, is what makes the work impossible to dismiss. The philosophy is the work. The company is one vehicle for it.

Her core claim: the AI governance conversation is aimed at institutions when the crisis is human. No one is talking to the person behind the machine.
