The fellowship, announced with great fanfare on April 6, is billed as “a pilot program to support independent safety and alignment research and develop the next generation of talent.” Fellows shall labor from Constellation’s Berkeley workspace or remotely, their efforts remunerated at $3,850 per week, over $200,000 annualized, plus roughly $15,000 in monthly compute. Applications close on May 3, and the program is not confined to AI specialists; OpenAI casts its net wide, ensnaring talents from cybersecurity, social science, and human-computer interaction alongside computer science. A veritable smorgasbord of expertise!
