Why this is on the board
University groups are the first step towards work on AI safety for many people, and Kairos provides most of the support those groups currently get. In this role you decide where $9.5 million goes over the next two years: which groups are added, which organisers get support and which regions you start in. You are steering not one career, but the intake of an entire field.
About the role
Own Kairos's support for AI safety university groups and make it far more ambitious.

What do you make of this?
The board is still in beta, so this is exactly the moment to say what you think. A vacancy we have missed, a judgement you do not share, something that does not work — all of it helps.
