The UK expands its AI Safety Institute to San Francisco, aiming to leverage Bay Area tech talent and strengthen global AI safety partnerships.
The United Kingdom's Artificial Intelligence (AI) Safety Institute is set to expand internationally with a new location in the United States.
On May 20, Michelle Donelan, the U.K. Technology Secretary, announced that the institute will open its first overseas office in San Francisco in the summer.
The announcement said that the strategic choice of a San Francisco office will allow the U.K. to “tap into the wealth of tech talent available in the Bay Area,” along with engaging with one of the world’s largest AI labs located between London and San Francisco.
