Our work sits at the nexus of governance and artificial intelligence. We take a systematic approach to developing projects that address institutional barriers in AI governance: undergoing prioritization and impact-planning exercises to define promising AI governance projects, conducting applied research and collective intelligence exercises to design select projects, and building coalitions and advocacy campaigns to deploy projects with high impact.
Ongoing themes
AI and the Rule of Law
We aim to ensure that the research, development, and deployment of advanced AI is conducted in a manner that protects and upholds the rule of law, in the US and beyond.
European AI Governance
We aim to strengthen the proposed EU AI Act and the surrounding regulatory regime, at large, instilling precaution with regard to increasingly capable AI systems.
Global AI Governance
We support the development and implementation of agile governance frameworks for AI, ranging from international frameworks to corporate guidance and technical standards.
