1. TL = "We've been working on trustworthy Al on the public interest research side for about five years, hoping other industry players with more Al expertise would step up to build more trustworthy tech," Surman said. "They haven't. So we decided mid-last year we needed to do it ourselves - and to find like-minded partners to do it alongside us. We then set out to find someone with the right mix of academic and industry Al experience to lead it." Funded by a $30 million seed investment from the Mozilla Foundation, Mozilla's parent organization, Mozilla.ai is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation - much like the Mozilla Corporation (the org responsible for developing Firefox) and Mozilla Ventures (the Mozilla Foundation's VC fund). Its managing director is Moez Draief, who previously was the chief scientist at Huawei's Noah's Ark Al lab and the global chief scientist at consulting company Capgemini.
