AI Safety, Ethics & Governance

California’s 4,505 scientific consulting practices under NAICS 541690 — the category for 'Other scientific and technical consulting services' — are not just a count. They’re a signal of a deeply institutionalized AI safety ecosystem. Texas, with 2,819, shows scale but not specialization. What does this mean for the future of AI governance? The real infrastructure isn’t in policy documents — it’s in the daily work of consultants. This data comes directly from the U.S. Census Bureau, County Business Patterns 2022, as analyzed by ALEX Intelligence.
