The Lifeboat Foundation is developing a world-class think tank with a
rich cognitive diversity of philosophers, economists, biologists,
nanotechnologists, AI researchers, educators, policy experts, engineers,
lawyers, ethicists, futurists, neuroscientists, physicists, space
experts, and other top thinkers
to encourage scientific advancements while
helping humanity survive existential risks and possible misuse of
increasingly powerful technologies, including genetic engineering,
nanotechnology, and robotics/AI, as we move towards the Singularity.
Unlike most organizations, whose advisory boards are too small to do more than provide some advice, our think tank provides action as well as words. Our board members have developed programs, created reports, written books, developed proposals for government agencies, donated money, fueled our blog, created educational videos, joined our staff, launched numerous forums, organized events, judged contests, and provided input on a range of issues from web design to grant proposals to ideas for new areas that Lifeboat Foundation should be involved in.
View interesting books by our advisory board members. Visit our memorial to advisory board members who worked to “Safeguard Humanity” until the end of their lives.
