AI Safety Summit at Stanford
A focused half-day forum bringing together frontier AI labs, researchers, builders, and investors to examine one increasingly urgent question:
As AI becomes more capable and autonomous, how do we make sure it remains safe, controllable, and aligned with human intentions?
AI safety used to focus largely on what models say. Now AI systems can reason, use tools, write and execute code, interact with other systems, and increasingly take actions of their own. This forum brings the people building, studying, funding, and governing frontier AI into one room to ask what safety actually means today — and who is responsible for it.
