 Encode is steering the future of history’s most important technology .

 Artificial intelligence can make everyday people’s lives better — or it can enable bioweapons, harm children, concentrate power, and more.

 We are pro-AI pro-human pro-progress pro-innovation 

 That’s exactly why we fight to keep AI’s promise alive through nonpartisan policy action and public education.

 We believe an extraordinary future is within reach — if humanity chooses and creates that future today. 

 
 
 We are supported by a variety of individual donors and philanthropic foundations, such as the Responsible Technology Youth Power Fund, the Archewell Foundation, the Heising-Simons Foundation, the We Are Family Foundation, the Future of Life Institute, the Survival and Flourishing Fund, and America’s Promise Alliance. We don’t accept funding from corporations, foreign governments, or executives at top AI companies.
