Help Me Fight for Human-Friendly AI !

Mal Fletcher is organizing this fundraiser.

Hi, I’m futurist Mal Fletcher. AI technology is evolving rapidly; so fast that we struggle to understand it!

We cannot wait for artificial intelligence to decide its ethical limits. We must act decisively to maximise AI’s benefits but limit its potential threats. You can help us be a catalyst for that!

This technology will impact almost everything - our jobs, health, mental well-being, privacy, finances, security and environment.

For four decades, I have helped people to engage the future today. I've done this through mass media advocacy* reaching over 100 nations, plus events in 40 nations.

Alongside me are some committed volunteers at the UK-based 2030Plus Futures Forum and the Next Wave International charity. We’ve also launched TV series, education programmes, research, and books and other publications.

We urgently need your help to promote human-friendly AI. We must act now, while we still have time to shape AI’s development.

(*My commentary - see recent samples below - has featured extensively on BBC TV and radio, Sky, CNBC, ABC, GBNews, TalkTV, and many global platforms.)

The Urgency of Our Cause

We need your support to raise £15,000 by mid-2025.

This will support our ongoing research and media advocacy, which provides a positive but ethical voice on AI in the public square. Your giving will help us launch AI awareness and ethics programmes for students and run more AI education sessions for civic and charity leaders.

How will your giving be used?

We’ve already allocated approx £3,000 for ongoing, up-to-date research; £9,000 for media commentary (includes prep, writing, and presenting.); £2,500 for publications (e.g. a new ebook on AI issues); £500 for some basic travel costs (for interviews, events etc).

By supporting this campaign, you will play a pivotal role in shaping AI's future and ensuring that AI is used responsibly.
