About us

AI technology is advancing quickly, and it brings significant challenges with its opportunities.

While AI could help solve many of humanity's pressing problems, it also presents serious risks that need to be carefully addressed - from immediate concerns about misuse to longer-term questions about human agency and existential safety.

We're a team committed to building the technical expertise and critical thinking skills needed to address these challenges.

Our vision

Expanding the global community of technically skilled individuals working on AI safety.

Through intensive in-person bootcamps, we equip participants with the tools and knowledge to tackle safety problems, launch impactful projects, and effectively communicate these crucial ideas to others.

We transform participants' motivation into insight and concrete technical abilities.
