Many leading scientists are worried that AI could be an existential risk to humanity. The AI Safety Summits, taking place this time in Seoul, South Korea, aim to reduce risks from AI together with industry and 28 leading AI countries plus the EU.

Unfortunately, these summits are behind closed doors, meaning citizens cannot verify how AI risks, which impose existential risks upon them, are being reduced. Therefore, our AI Safety Summit Talks are open to the general public, policymakers, and journalists. At our events, we discuss what the largest risks of future AI are and how to reduce them.
