Who this course is for
For people who are done reading about AI risk and ready to actually work on it.
For domain experts - in policy, security, operations, engineering - who want to point their skills at the most important problem of our time.
For those planning to go deep on technical safety or governance, and want the strategic context first.
Don't fit these perfectly? Apply anyway. Some of our most impactful participants have included teachers, lawyers, engineers, and community leaders. We bet on drive and ambition, not CVs.

A launchpad, not a lecture
This is not a course you "complete." It's the starting point for whatever you do next. You'll leave knowing which problems matter most, which paths make sense for your background, and what to do next.
Frameworks that cut through the noise
Three mental models that replace months of scattered reading: incentive mapping to understand the race to AGI, kill chains to analyze threats, and defense-in-depth to design interventions. You'll leave able to hold your own in conversations with people already in the field.
A community of people who ship
We have 7,000+ alumni at Anthropic, DeepMind, UK AISI, and dozens of organizations making sure humanity safely navigates transformative AI. You'll meet people already doing the work - and who'll open doors and pressure-test your thinking.
