Work overview
This is an overview of CAIS AI safety research and field-building projects.
We conduct impactful research on AI safety.
CAIS conducts technical and conceptual research. Our team develops benchmarks and methods designed to improve the safety of existing systems. We prioritize transparency and accessibility, publishing our findings at top conferences and sharing our resources with the global community.
We conduct impactful research on AI safety.
CAIS builds infrastructure and pathways into AI safety. We empower researchers with compute resources, funding, and educational materials while organizing workshops and competitions to promote safety research. Our goal is to create a thriving research ecosystem that will drive progress toward safe AI.

AI Safety, Ethics and Society is a textbook and online course providing a non-technical introduction to how current AI systems work, why many experts are concerned that continued advances in AI could pose severe societal-scale risks, and how society can manage and mitigate these risks.

The SafeBench competition stimulates research on new benchmarks which assess and reduce risks associated with artificial intelligence. We are providing $250,000 in prizes: five $20,000 prizes and three $50,000 prizes for top benchmarks.
Hundreds of AI experts and public figures express their concern about AI risk in this open letter. It was covered globally in publications like the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and the Washington Post.
To support progress and innovation in AI safety, we offer researchers free access to our compute cluster, which can run and train large-scale AI systems.
