Future of Life Institute

We are a volunteer-run research and outreach organization working to mitigate existential risks facing humanity. We are currently focusing on potential risks from the development of human-level artificial intelligence. To learn more about the ideas behind FLI, check out this article or watch Max Tegmark's Singularity Summit talk. FLI is based in the Boston area, and welcomes the participation of scientists, students, philanthropists, and others. Here is a video highlighting our activities from our first year.
