Transluce is an independent research lab that builds open, scalable technology for understanding AI systems and steering them in the public interest. Transluce means to shine light through something to reveal its structure. Today’s complex AI systems are difficult to understand—not even experts can reliably predict their behavior once deployed. Given AIs extraordinary consequences on society, we need scalable and open analyses of the capabilities and risks of AI systems. We are building open source, AI-driven tools to understand and analyze AI systems. We will apply these tools to open-weight models, so the world can vet our analyses and improve their reliability. Once our technology has been vetted, we will work with frontier AI labs and governments to ensure that internal assessments reach the same standards as our publicly vetted procedures.
