We are an incubator for new governance models for transformative technology.
Our goal: To overcome the transformative technology trilemma.
Existing tech governance approaches fall prey to the transformative technology trilemma. They assume significant trade-offs between progress, participation, and safety.
Market-forward builders tend to sacrifice safety for progress; risk-averse technocrats tend to sacrifice participation for safety; participation-centered democrats tend to sacrifice progress for participation.
Collective flourishing requires all three. We need CI R&D so we can simultaneously advance technological capabilities, prevent disproportionate risks, and enable individual and collective self-determination.
