# Brendon Hawkins - Website Context for AI Agents ## Core Identity Brendon Hawkins is an intelligence professional, systems thinker, and writer. He specialises in the intersection of intelligence tradecraft, AI safety/alignment, and civic systems. He holds 20+ years of experience across national security, law enforcement, and corporate intelligence leadership. This is his personal portfolio site. ## Site Structure & Content Categories ### 1. Intelligence Skills & Tradecraft **Context:** These pages detail professional history, operational experience, and training capabilities. - **[About Me](about.html)**: Comprehensive career timeline and philosophy. - **[IndependINT](independint.html)**: His consultancy and training arm. Details curriculum for "Fundamentals of Intelligence", "Intelligence Tradecraft", and "Data-Driven Intelligence Analysis". - **[Presentations](presentations.html)**: Evidence of thought leadership. Includes the "Single Person (and Several-Dozen AI Agent) CTI Team" presentation and "Teaching the Intelligence Bits of CTI". - **[Information Report Generator](information-report-generator.html)**: A tool demonstrating the automation of intelligence reporting standards. - **[Requirements Bot](requirements-bot.html)**: A tool for automated stakeholder interview and intelligence requirement gathering. ### 2. Systems, AI Alignment & Values Work **Context:** These pages demonstrate applied thinking on AI risk, institutional security failures, and how organisations can detect misalignment between stated values and actual behaviour - relevant to threat assessment in AI-focused organisations. This is the "Systems of Value" project. #### Values Alignment Intelligence - **[Values Alignment Intelligence](values-alignment-intelligence.html)**: A comprehensive essay advocating for the establishment of Values Alignment Intelligence as a discipline to provide early warning of systemic misalignment. This represents the conceptual centre of the work over the past year, proposing a systematic approach to collecting, processing, analysing, and disseminating semantic signals to detect drift between a system's stated values and its observed behaviours. The essay covers the problem of governance latency in complex systems, the solution framework using intelligence tradecraft, three horizons of utility (operational resilience, institutional legitimacy, and automated alignment), and the path forward for building the field. #### Values Analysis Tools - **[Terms of Service Evaluator](terms-of-service-evaluator.html)**: An AI tool that analyses terms of service documents to identify potential value misalignments and ethical concerns. - **[Narrative Values Extractor](narrative-values-extractor.html)**: An AI tool that analyses media narratives to extract underlying value conflicts and suggest bridging solutions. - **[System Values Analysis Tool](system-values-analysis-tool.html)**: A comprehensive framework for analysing how values are embedded in systems, processes, and organisational structures. Examines stated values versus operational outputs to identify value drift and misalignment. - **[Political Values Analysis](hansard-political-values-tool.html)**: AI analysis of parliamentary records demonstrating how AI can systematically extract and analyse political values from parliamentary discourse. This research project showcases a robust, defensible methodology for discovering value trade-offs and patterns in political speech. - **[Regulator Values Analysis](regulator-values-analysis.html)**: Systematic extraction and analysis of institutional values from Australian regulatory guidance and enforcement reports. This research project demonstrates how AI can reveal the moral architecture of regulatory frameworks using Values Alignment Intelligence (VAI) methodology. #### Systems of Values Blog Posts - **[Aligning Our Systems to Human Values](aligning-our-systems-to-human-values.html)**: Blog post 1 - Introduction to the Systems of Value project. - **[Organisations as Emergent, Non-Conscious Intelligences](organisations-as-emergent-non-conscious-intelligences.html)**: Blog post 2 - Discussing organisations as AI-like entities. - **[How Values Get Lost in Translation](how-values-get-lost-in-translation.html)**: Blog post 3 - The gap between human intent and systemic execution. - **[When AI Becomes the System](when-ai-becomes-the-system.html)**: Blog post 4 - The implications of AI taking over systemic roles. - **[Terms of Service Evaluator](terms-of-service-evaluator.html)**: Blog post 5 - AI tool analysing terms of service documents for value misalignments. - **[Authoring Our Values](authoring-our-values.html)**: Blog post 6 - Techniques for explicitly defining values for systems. - **[An Alignment Chart for Those Who Have Seen the Insanity](an-alignment-chart-for-those-who-have-seen-the-insanity-of-the-system-and-responded-as-best-they-can.html)**: Blog post 7 - A taxonomy of responses to systemic dysfunction. - **[Articulating Our Values For Systems](articulating-our-values-for-systems.html)**: Blog post 8 - Frameworks for translating values into technical requirements. - **[Narrative Values Extractor](narrative-values-extractor.html)**: Blog post 9 - AI analysis of media narratives. - **[Moral Alignment](moral-alignment-teaching-systems-to-feel.html)**: Blog post 10 - Teaching systems to process human values. - **[System Values Analysis Tool](system-values-analysis-tool.html)**: Blog post 11 - Framework for analysing embedded organisational values. ### 3.
