RAILS – Rotterdam AI Literacy & Safety
Rotterdam AI Literacy & Safety
Join us in preventing AI from going off the rails.
We’re a student-run community in Rotterdam dedicated to understanding AI and the risks that come with it. Bring your curiosity. No tech background needed!
Why we exist
The people building the most advanced AI systems openly disagree about how risky they are. Some of them have quit their jobs over it. Meanwhile, most of us use these tools every day without much idea of how they work.
You shouldn’t need a computer science degree to have a say in how AI develops, or to help make it go well. RAILS welcomes students from every background who want to learn more about this technology and help it turn out well for humanity.
