I really like Center for AI Safety.

The AI Risk Reduction Center

Center for AI Risk Reduction

Institute for Machine Ethics

Center for Ethics in Artificial Intelligence

And I favor this kind of name change pretty strongly.

I like "Institute for Machine Ethics", though some people could find the name a bit pretentious.

Machine Ethics is more associated with narrow AI, though.

I think the word "machine" is too reminiscent of robots.
