Statement of Core Activities
The Lab works in close collaboration with academic researchers, practitioners, and other stakeholders to define and promote implementable solutions.
• Advocating for the adoption of responsible governance solutions through multi-stakeholder initiatives and direct-to-company engagement. The Lab works with practitioners to define, shape, and implement standards and norms around priorities like AI auditing and safety evaluation.
• Supporting CDT’s policy teams in advising policymakers on how to achieve effective auditing, safety, and accountability solutions through legislation, regulation, funding, and government-endorsed best practices.
• Strengthening public interest advocates, particularly civil rights organizations, researchers focused on disinformation, and other groups representing impacted communities.
• Building bridges and access points for the research community. The Lab hosts fellowships and pursues collaborations with researchers working on topics including fairness, accountability, and transparency in AI, as well as information integrity and AI safety.
