Professor of Philosophy, University of Oxford Founding Director, Future of Humanity Institute (FHI)
Nick Bostrom is a philosopher and futurist best known for his work on existential risk, artificial general intelligence (AGI), and long-term global strategy. He founded the Future of Humanity Institute at the University of Oxford, where he leads research into how emerging technologies — especially AI — could shape the trajectory of civilisation. Bostrom’s influential book Superintelligence introduced the risks of misaligned AGI to a broader audience and has informed policy discussions at the highest levels. He advocates for a cautious, governance-first approach to advanced AI, grounded in ethical foresight and systemic risk analysis.
