Princeton AI Alignment

A community working to reduce risks from advanced AI.

Our Mission

AI is advancing rapidly and will reshape society—science, education, markets, and national security. But unlike most technologies, advanced AI is highly general and scalable: small failures can compound as systems become more capable and more autonomous. The core challenge is alignment: making AI systems reliable, interpretable, and robustly guided by human values and intent, even under pressure and in unfamiliar situations.

We work to ensure AI is developed to benefit humanity’s future

Princeton AI Alignment is building a campus community for this work. We support Princeton students and researchers through fellowships, speaker events, project teams, and mentorship—helping members learn the field, contribute to research, and engage seriously with the technical and societal stakes of advanced AI.
