AI Existential Safety Community
We are building a community of AI researchers who want AI to be safe, ethical, and beneficial.
On this page you'll find a growing group of AI researchers keen to ensure that AI remains safe and beneficial, even if it eventually supercedes human ability on essentially all tasks.
