.@sethlazar, @nickacaputo, and I are launching a new AGI Governance Fellowship at Johns Hopkins: three weeks in DC this September, in person, for early-career people already in AI governance. A capstone, not an on-ramp. Applications open, mid-July for full consideration.

this is one of the most important things happening this year. Seth and the @JHUBloombergCtr folk are elite, and imo the field of "AGI Institutions" will soon be recognized as one of our best leverage points for making AI go well.

strongly encourage applying!!!

Announcing a 3 wk AGI Governance Fellowship at @JHUBloombergCtr School of Government and Policy.

Join me, @ghadfield, @nickacaputo and guests for an intensive schedule of deep dives into AI governance at the frontier, covering topics such as societal resilience, AGI and democracy, and the new institutions that governing in/with AGI will demand; we will range from foundational philosophical questions to the tip of the legislative spear.

The arrival of AGI would be challenging enough if our ~250yo institutions were in full health. That they aren’t both increases the scale of the challenge, and creates a unique opportunity to imagine the institutions that will carry us through the next 1/4 millennium.

We are looking for ~20 fellows, aiming to attract and shape the people who will start to build those institutions: future leaders in AGI governance. We expect you to come from many different backgrounds, so hope this call will be shared far and wide. Details, eligibility, and how to apply here: https://sogp.jh.edu/agi-governance-fellowship/

Governing the AI transition is going to be a central focus of our new school, and we have many more initiatives coming. And we will be hiring in many different kinds of role, from tenured and tenure track faculty to research scientists to ops and comms and students and beyond.

It is sort of impossible to shut up about how cool this is. I can think of few programs more exciting than this course of study exclusively focused on how to conduct policy and governance in an AGI-adjacent future. Also the team’s ball knowledge is *real* good.
