Future of Life Institute Podcast · Can AI Do Our Alignment Homework? (with Ryan Kidd) · 6 Feb 2026 podcast

There's some amazing researchers there.

We also have some harder to categorize research.

Yoshua Bengio's whole team at Law Zero, plenty of Yoshua Bengio himself and plenty of others are there.

And we have some AI sentience research as well, digital minds.

So Patrick Butlin at LAOS AI, Kyle Fish at Anthropic.

Yeah, it's a very exciting program.

I actually can't necessarily say.

Well, OK, I can speculate.

But I'll say this.

We have had actually about the same proportion of governance researchers, give or take a few percent, for the last two years.

It hasn't changed by fraction.

So we are quite on track for continuing the same trend, potentially.

Part of the reason is we are based in some of the, particularly in Berkeley, SF Bay Area, this is a big technical hub.

There are other programs that have had more deep governance focus, like we have GovAI, their classic fellowship.

We have IAPS.

We have, of course, RANDcast, this large program run out of RAND.

and plenty more besides.

But yeah, of course, Horizon Fellowship for US Policy Careers.

And these have also kind of existed for longer than we were around.

So at a time when we were basically the biggest fish in town, which we are still in many ways in terms of funding and I think in terms of procedures as well for technical AI safety, we're the biggest and best program.
