Our research

Our research focuses on the lifelong safety assurance of increasingly autonomous AI systems in dynamic and uncertain contexts. It will build on methodologies and concepts in disciplines spanning AI, safety science, engineering, philosophy, law, sociology and health sciences.

Our CDT brings together people from diverse disciplines to create the next generation of safe AI experts and a lasting community that will pioneer new evidence-based policy and practices for safe AI.
