MIT professor Max Tegmark is known for his out-of-the-box ideas and decades of contributions to physics, cosmology, and AI. As the cofounder of the Future of Life Institute, he brings together leading actors in AI research, including Elon Musk and Larry Page, to explore the development and potential outcomes of super intelligent machines and how we can reap the benefits of them while avoiding the pitfalls.

Dr. Tegmark is dedicated to making sure that as AI evolves, that it works to better all of society. His current research focuses on creating AI that can be trusted via engineering systems of reasoning that can be easily followed and understood.

Dr. Tegmark is the author of over 200 scientific papers, twelve of which have been cited over 500 times. He has published two best-selling books, Our Mathematical Universe and Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence. Furthermore, Dr. Tegmark has been interviewed in numerous documentaries including Do You Trust This Computer, Parallel Worlds, Parallel Lives, and several episodes of Sci Fi Science: Physics of the Impossible.

Much of his early work focuses on astrophysics, specifically cosmic precision, new technology for low-frequency radio interferometry, and theories that describe the universe as a mathematical structure and possible multiverses. He was elected Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2012 and chosen as the winner of Science magazine’s “Breakthrough of the Year: 2003.”
