We are building a global research community, dedicated to helping humanity navigate the transition to a world with advanced AI.
AI has the potential to be a radically transformative technology. Continued progress could bring profoundly important benefits, including major scientific advances and reductions in illness and poverty. However, this progress could also bring substantial risks. Research is urgently needed to understand the implications of advanced AI. Ultimately, we believe, positive outcomes may require the development of new global norms, policies, and institutions.
Our research community is guided by our Research Agenda and Theory of Impact, drawing on Political Science, Computer Science, Economics, Law, and Philosophy. Our work aims to define and map the field of AI governance, and address the most important and neglected research questions. Our fellowships and prizes support promising early-career researchers working on AI governance. We run seminars and conferences to better connect the field of AI governance and build a thriving global research community.
