About Us

FLI is an independent non-profit working to reduce large-scale, extreme risks from transformative technologies. We also aim for the future development and use of these technologies to be beneficial to all. Our work includes grant making, educational outreach, and policy engagement. 

In the last few years, our main focus has been on the benefits and risks from AI. FLI created one of the earliest sets of AI governance principles – the Asilomar AI principles. The Institute, alongside the governments of France and Finland, is also the civil society champion of the recommendations on AI in the UN Secretary General’s Digital Cooperation Roadmap.? FLI also recently announced a $25M multi-year grant program aimed at reducing existential risk. The first part of that, the AI Existential Safety Program, was launched at the end of 2021.
