What they do
SIRDA editorial
At a glance
Nonprofit addressing societal-scale risks from advanced AI through research, field building, benchmarks, standards and public communication.
Its current place in the ecosystem spans alignment and control, dangerous-capability evaluation, field building, and public communication and education.
Current work and relevance
CAIS continues both conceptual and technical research on societal-scale AI risk, with 2026 work spanning ethics for a human-AI future, deterrence, political manipulation, AI wellbeing, and definitions of advanced capability.
SIRDA tracks Center for AI Safety because independent nonprofit work can supply research, evaluation, field-building, or public-interest scrutiny outside frontier AI developers. That independence is especially valuable when evidence needs to remain contestable and when no single institution should control the full decision chain.
