Build and lead residential workshops that help exceptional people pursue high-impact work in AI safety, biosecurity, and policy.
We’re reviewing applications on a rolling basis.
In just over two years, we’ve trained 1,200+ people through our flagship programs:SPAR: The largest AI safety research fellowship, with 800+ mentees per round mentored by researchers from Anthropic, Redwood Research, RAND, MIT, the UK AI Security Institute, and others.
Generator Residency: In partnership with Constellation, a platform for generalist talent to pitch, build, and ship projects that build capacity and infrastructure across the AI safety ecosystem, with advisors from OpenAI, AI Futures Project, METR, and more.
Global Challenges Project: A workshop series introducing promising students to careers in AI safety and biosecurity, run several times a year across Oxford, Boston, and Berkeley.
Pathfinder Fellowship: Helping grow the global network of AI safety university groups from a few dozen to nearly 100, with $9.
5M in funding over the next two years to support their work.
We see ourselves as a portfolio of highly impactful projects in a fast-evolving field.
Over the next six months, we expect to double in size and launch several new initiatives addressing critical gaps in the ecosystem.
The RoleThe Global Challenges Project (GCP) runs three-day residential workshops that help talented individuals explore careers in AI safety and biosecurity.
Over the past few years, GCP has run dozens of workshops for 400+ students, mostly in Oxford, Boston, and Berkeley.
GCP has a long and successful track record and became part of Kairos in early 2026.
We’re now expanding GCP into a full portfolio of workshops serving different audiences and career stages, with the ambition of becoming the leading fieldbuilding workshop organizer in AI safety and biosecurity.
This means building new programs, new formats, and the systems.
