Summary
Jamie Bernardi is a co-founder of BlueDot Impact and an AI safety practitioner with eight years’ experience spanning ML research, engineering, and program leadership. He built and scaled an AGI safety fundamentals programme that educated over 500 participants and now channels that work into cohort-based courses to grow the field’s talent pipeline. Jamie combines hands-on research—collaborating with the Future of Humanity Institute on Bayesian-inspired safe RL and prior work on pessimism—with product-focused ML engineering at Audio Analytic. Trained as a physicist (MSci, Cambridge, 1st class), he blends rigorous theoretical thinking with practical systems delivery and curriculum design. Based in Cambridge, he now focuses on AI governance and capacity-building, connecting motivated newcomers to the most consequential skill gaps in alignment. A hobbyist coder at heart, he pairs academic research instincts with a founder’s appetite for scaling high-impact education.
