The Oxford Martin Programme on the Impacts of Future Technology (aka FutureTech) is a new research department at Oxford University, roughly a spin-off of FHI, but focusing on AI and nanotech risks and differential technological development. Like FHI, this department is directed by Nick Bostrom. They’ll be hiring more researchers soon. Basically, this means more people and money being devoted to existential risk reduction.
Okay, now back to work.
