Intro Fellowships
The Intro to AI Safety Fellowship is a 6-8 week, quarter-long course which explores the impact of increasingly powerful AI systems on society, explains the problems which the AI safety field is currently working on, and goes over active areas of research.
The program consists of a series of video and reading lessons which are accompanied by weekly, collective meetings that expand on the topics covered in the lessons. You can expect to learn from many prevailing sources in the field which will help you develop a solid research agenda that you may work towards in the following quarters.
In the 6-week technical fellowships, participants will complete about 3 hours of core content outside of hour-long weekly meetings, split between conceptual readings and technical content. In the 8-week governance fellowship, there is no mandatory time commitment outside of the two-hour weekly meetings, each of which will be equally split between readings and discussion. We encourage participants to do some or all of the optional readings before each meeting to dive deeper on topics that interest them!
