AI Watch

Welcome! This is a website to track people and organizations in the AI safety/alignment/AI existential risk communities. A position or organization being on AI Watch does not indicate an assessment that that position or organization is actually making AI safer or that the position or organization is good for the world in any way. It is mostly a sociological indication that the position or organization is associated with these communities, as well as an indication that the position or organization claims to be working on AI safety or alignment. (There are some plans to eventually introduce such assessments on AI Watch, but for now there are none.) See the code repository for the source code and data of this website.

This website is developed by Issa Rice with data contributions from Sebastian Sanchez, Amana Rice, and Vipul Naik, and has been partially funded by Vipul Naik and Mati Roy (who in July 2023 paid for the time Issa had spent answering people’s questions about AI Watch up until that point).
