Makerere Safe Intelligence Lab

About MakSIL

Safe intelligence. Shared responsibility.

Makerere Safe Intelligence Lab (MakSIL) focuses on AI safety and alignment, model evaluation, robustness and security, responsible AI, AI governance, and AI safety in African contexts.

Our research direction

We aim to contribute to a future in which AI systems are safe, reliable, and responsive to the people and communities they affect.

An African perspective

African languages, social contexts, and deployment environments raise important questions for AI safety. MakSIL places these questions at the centre of its research direction.
