Research and evidence

The research behind Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Systems: the questions it asks, the models and measurements it uses, how uncertainty is stated and how a result is reviewed and reproduced before it is published.

    Public accountability, access and rights.

  6. 06

    Autonomous physical systems

    Robots, sensors and controls.

03Open questions

What AI research cannot yet answer well enough for decisions.

AI risk research has to keep pace with capability. The agenda concentrates on evaluation, agents, uses in public services and science, and the system-level effects that single-model testing misses.

  • Which evaluations predict real-world failure, rather than benchmark performance? See model evaluation.
  • How should agents that act through tools be scoped, monitored and stopped? See agentic systems.
  • What evidence should a public service require before using AI in decisions about people? See AI and public services.
  • How do autonomous physical systems fail in mixed human-machine environments? See autonomous physical systems.
  • What is the energy and water footprint of AI compute, and where does it concentrate? See compute and energy.
04Evidence

Every result keeps its label.

Results are labelled as observed, published statistics, estimated, modelled, forecast, scenario or expert judgement. Missing data is shown as missing, never filled silently.

Questions and answers.

Can I propose a research question?
Yes. Write to the contact form with the question, the context and who would use the answer. A proposal receives a reference; it does not commit the platform to the work.

Information and enquiries are open today. An enquiry receives a reference and names the next step; applications, payments, compute allocations and registrations open only when their team, terms and review capacity exist.
