Machine Intelligence Research Institute

The Machine Intelligence Research Institute (MIRI) is focused on addressing the critical challenges associated with artificial superintelligence (ASI) and its potential risks, including the existential threat it poses to humanity. For over two decades, MIRI has been a pioneer in AI alignment research, developing theoretical frameworks to ensure that advanced AI systems can be aligned with human values and safety. The organization advocates for a globally coordinated moratorium on the development of ASI to prevent catastrophic outcomes while fostering a deeper understanding of AI systems. Based in Berkeley, California, MIRI engages with policymakers and the scientific community to promote safer AI development practices.
