Portrait of George Omondi Gor

I'm a legal and policy expert focused on reducing the likelihood of, or alleviating, catastrophic risks from the most capable "frontier" AI systems. I serve as an Associate, focused on AI Security Policy, at The Future Society. I'm also pursuing an interdisciplinary Master of Studies (M.St.) in AI Ethics and Society at the University of Cambridge, supported by Coefficient Giving. I hold a Bachelor of Laws (Second Class Honours, Upper Division) from Kabarak University.

I spend time organizing multistakeholder convenings in Europe and the United Kingdom, including The Athens Roundtable on AI and the Rule of Law, now in its 8th edition. I'm also shaping our inaugural conference, Verified: Securing the AI Stack in a Post-Mythos World, in Washington DC, United States. These convenings bring together diplomats, frontier AI company executives, lawyers, policymakers, researchers in academia and think tanks, and technical experts to work through the challenges frontier AI poses to humanity's future. I also write explainers, briefs, memos, and reports on different frontier AI law and policy problems.

While incubated at ILINA Program, I co-authored technical reports such as "Computing Power and the Governance of Artificial Intelligence" with researchers from OpenAI, the University of Cambridge, the University of Oxford, Harvard University, the Centre for the Governance of AI, and the Institute for Law and AI, including Turing Award winner Professor Yoshua Bengio. I've also previously served as a member of OpenAI's Red Teaming Network as an independent contractor, evaluating the safety and risk profiles of frontier AI models as part of pre-deployment risk assessments.
