We build the next generation of Canadians working on AI safety.

AI systems are becoming increasingly powerful.
We think it's worth taking that seriously.

Our Mission

We are an organization that brings together individuals from all backgrounds and disciplines to understand, discuss, and contribute to one of the most consequential challenges of our time. To make artificial intelligence human-aligned and beneficial, we prioritize exploring the risks of advanced AI systems and developing solutions for what can be done.

What We Work On

  • Technical Research Alignment, interpretability, robustness, and evaluation of AI systems. ▸
    Work in this area includes reading and discussing papers on mechanistic interpretability, scalable oversight, and evaluation methods. Members interested in research can connect with uOttawa faculty and apply to programs like MATS or ARENA.
  • Governance & Policy Shaping the frameworks, institutions, and policies that govern how AI is built and deployed. ▸
    We examine how governments, labs, and international bodies are responding to advanced AI, from compute governance and liability frameworks to concrete policy proposals, with a focus on how Canada can play a meaningful role in shaping responsible AI development.
