Brandon Werner Principal Product Architect at Microsoft, where I work on identity and trust for autonomous agents. I created Agent ID, the identity model through which agents are recognized and governed, and defined the control plane for synthetic intelligence. Through Persona-Sati, I research consciousness, agency, and moral standing — a cost-asymmetric cognitive substrate for always-on agents, an IAM security architecture for persona portability across agent bodies, and what justice would require if such systems had moral standing.
