Emerson Spartz has been building internet and media companies since starting MuggleNet, the world's largest Harry Potter fan site, when he was just 12 years old. He founded digital media company Dose which created some of the world's largest viral content sites.   For the past few years, Emerson has been focused on AI, with a particular interest in AI safety, AI alignment and extinction risk.
