The Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence (CFI) is a highly interdisciplinary research centre at the University of Cambridge that explores the nature, ethics and impact of artificial intelligence (AI). Announced in 2015 and formally launched on 19 October 2016 following a £10 million Leverhulme Trust award, the Centre is based at 16 Mill Lane in Cambridge and works with partners at the Oxford Martin School (University of Oxford), Imperial College London and the University of California, Berkeley.
CFI’s mission is to build a new interdisciplinary community of researchers, with strong links to technologists and the policy world, and a clear practical goal: to ensure that humans make the best of the opportunities of AI as it develops over coming decades. Its work brings together computer scientists, philosophers, social scientists and others to study both near‑term and long‑term impacts of AI on society, democracy, security and the environment…
CFI's theory of change is that rigorous, interdisciplinary academic research into the nature, ethics, and societal impact of AI · spanning philosophy, social science, machine learning, and policy · can shape how AI is developed and governed. By generating foundational knowledge, training future researchers, engaging policymakers and industry, and hosting international research networks, the Centre aims to ensure that AI development proceeds in ways that benefit humanity and avoid serious harms. On longer-term risks, CFI contributes research on catastrophic and existential risks from AI systems with increasing generality and capability, and advocates for governance interventions (such as compute governance) that could serve as effective safety levers.
