LASR Labs
Closed 30 March 2026
London, UK
LASR Labs (London AI Safety Research Labs) is running its Summer 2026 cohort — a 13-week, full-time, in-person technical AI safety research programme based at the London Initiative for Safe AI. The programme runs from July to October 2026. Participants work in teams of three to four, supervised by an experienced AI safety researcher, to take a research project from proposal to publication. The programme produces an academic-style paper and accompanying blog post per team. Previous supervisors have come from Google DeepMind, UK AISI, and leading UK universities. LASR has a strong publication track record: four out of five groups in the 2023 cohort had papers accepted at NeurIPS workshops or ICLR, and all five papers from Summer 2024 were accepted at NeurIPS workshops. Alumni have gone on to work at UK AISI, Apollo Research, Leap Labs, and Open Philanthropy. Participants receive an £11,000 stipend plus food, office space, and travel. The programme is designed for people looking to join technical AI safety teams in the next year, or those hoping to publish in academia. Typical applicants have ML engineering experience, strong quantitative skills, and research ability — a PhD in a relevant field is common but not required. Research areas include: science of deep learning, multi-agent systems and collusion, alignment theory in RL, deception in LLMs, interpretability, scalable oversight, capability evals, and AI control.
