Evidence before answer
A claim should identify its source, scope, and the time at which it was checked.
Mission
We reduce the gap between what AI says and what it can prove.
The foundation studies artificial intelligence, memory, and cognitive systems with the goal of building solutions that can be traced, tested, and safely challenged.
Uncertainty is information
A system should distinguish fact, inference, hypothesis, and lack of knowledge.
Humans retain control
Autonomy requires boundaries, consent, auditability, and a safe stopping mode.
Critique strengthens the result
A method should enable scrutiny, challenge, and replication.
Statutory purposes
The mission has a wider social context.
Research into AI safety and trustworthiness is the programme’s core. The statute also covers education, technological sovereignty, social good, digital transformation, and responsible applications in energy and climate.
Research and development
AI, machine learning, memory, neural architectures, and cognitive systems.
Safety and trust
AI Safety, Trustworthy AI, ethics, and accountable autonomous systems.
Education and society
Technology education and research into AI’s impact on work, the economy, and institutions.
European sovereignty
European technological, digital, and institutional capacity.
Energy and climate
Technologies supporting energy transition and sustainable development.
Boundaries
What we will not pretend.
We will not call a plan a result, a prototype a product, or funding we merely intend to seek an awarded grant.
We will not use the foundation’s authority to conceal its relationship with KLNR.AI. We disclose that relationship explicitly.
We will not replace evidence with confidence of tone. When knowledge is insufficient, the correct result may be: we do not know.
