The meeting gathers representatives of major AI and AI safety organizations with policy strategists and other relevant actors with the goal of fostering cooperation amongst global AGI-relevant actors but also more directly amongst participants to contribute to a flourishing long-term community.
While discussions followed the Chatham House Rule, a high-level summary of the sessions and action-is available in the report.
The 2017 meeting in this series focused on drafting policy scenarios for different AI time frames, and was followed by the 2018 meeting that focused on increasing coordination among AGI-relevant actors, especially the US and China. The 2019 meeting expanded on this topic by mapping concrete strategies toward cooperation.
We welcome questions, comments, and feedback!
With the report of this year’s meeting published, it’s on to the next one:
The 2020 meeting in this series will be held on March 20 at The Laundry in San Francisco.
We hope to gradually expand and diversify the AI strategy & policy community and onboard new people doing exciting relevant work.
For the first time, the meeting is opened up to a small number of applications and the program focuses on intros/updates by major organizations, research updates by participants, and the exploration of novel topics.
We welcome you to apply and suggest a session via the form below and share the application with relevant colleagues.
