Why this is canonical
'Public trust' names a specific and demanding standard: not compliance, not certification, but the legitimacy that comes from genuine accountability to citizens. Applied to AI on the .ai TLD, this string positions itself at the intersection of sovereign governance and the trust-building function that is currently the most contested challenge in AI deployment at national scale. It is best-positioned to be cited in AI governance frameworks, public accountability initiatives, and civic AI programs.
