Our mission is to ensure that everyone can access the conversation on how AI is being implemented in society.
Fellows speak for themselves and have absolute independence over their work, and don’t speak on behalf of one another. What unites us is our shared mission.
We are a think-tank and non-profit NGO. We work as a collective of specialists.

If you want to hire a Fellow for other work related to their specialties, you are welcome do so directly by looking them up in Fellows and reaching out to them by email or LinkedIn.
