Oliver Ilott Director, AI Safety Institute
Our Fellow has been a vital part of our cyber team in the AI Safety Institute. They led our work on the world’s first pre-deployment testing of a frontier AI system. Since then they led our project on evaluating models on spearphishing abilities, and integrated several university-level capture the flag tasks into our evaluation suite.
In each case they went above and beyond to apply their expertise to help us hold a high bar for scientific rigour both to their work, and to work done by the rest of the team. We’re lucky to have them!
Mary Kunnenkeril Deputy Head, No10 Business Unit
Having access to a No10 Innovation Fellow was invaluable in progressing our thinking on AI adoption. Their first-hand experience of applying AI solutions across the private sector and government, seeing both the opportunities and challenges, made them an integral member of our team.
Having a subject matter expert in the room also added a huge amount of credibility to the technical conversations we held with C-Suite business leaders. Having access to their expertise (and hard work) not only improved the work we were doing but also gave the whole team a genuine learning experience.
Nick Smallwood CEO, Infrastructure & Projects Authority
Having a Fellow in the IPA meant they worked side-by-side with our project delivery experts to zero-in on challenges we confront and the opportunities our vast and rich datasets present. They developed a truly impactful tool to generate insights on a project’s status and obstacles to delivery. It will accelerate our understanding of issues, meaning we can make more targeted, effective interventions.
Through our Fellow we also benefitted from invaluable access to the 10DS team and their expertise in AI, Data Security and Infrastructure.
