Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence

The development of AI seems likely to be one of the defining themes of our century, and the project of ensuring that we make best use of its opportunities is one that we all face together. Thanks to a £10 million grant from the Leverhulme Trust, in 2016 the University of Cambridge established an interdisciplinary research centre, the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence (CFI), to explore the opportunities and challenges of this potentially epoch-making technology, both short and long term. The Centre is a collaboration with partners at the University of Oxford, Imperial College London, and the University of California, Berkeley. The goal of Leverhulme CFI is to lead the growth of a new interdisciplinary research community to address the opportunities and challenges of machine intelligence.
