how can ai help bring different shapes together?

We work to drive...

A future in which AI makes us more capable and more humane: expanding (not diminishing) the agency, judgement and possibilities of those who build with and depend on it.

What we do

Research
& Measurement

Through research partnerships, longitudinal studies and insight into real public-service contexts, build evidence that identifies not only how AI affects human agency, capability, relationships and trust, but also define what better human × AI relationships could be.

Design
& Experiment

AI can do more for public service than make existing work more efficient; it can also strengthen human agency, judgement, learning, care, connection and trust. Here, we test our theories with small, working design interventions and tools that let people experience a different kind of AI, first-hand.

Community
& Engagement

Translate evidence into shared standards, decision frameworks, practices, design patterns and capability. This includes clarifying accountability, governance, and policy advisory so human outcomes are built into how AI is commissioned, approved, deployed and reviewed across government.

Conscious Builder Community:
Gathering #2

The Conscious Builders Community is a program developed to bring AI developers, designers, researchers and ethicists together to build better products. Here, we share, debate, workshop and design.

Through inspiration sessions and hands-on product garages: we help builders to engage in critical conversations, identify potential risks, imagine better possibilities, and stay inspired and connected to the human impact of working with AI.
