About this role

About ControlAI
ControlAI is a non-profit organisation that works with a singular mission to prevent the development of unsafe superintelligence and secure a great future for humanity.

We develop policy and legislation; secure media coverage; produce high-quality videos and infographics; design and run effective digital and physical campaigns; organise events; and influence policymakers. In less than two years of operations, we have secured public support for our campaigns from high-ranking politicians, have authored draft bills for the UK and US, have created multiple viral videos, and have led international coalitions.

For example, since our founding in 2023, ControlAI has gathered over 25 UK lawmakers in acknowledging the risk of superintelligence, over 60 UK lawmakers in support of our policy to ban deepfakes across the supply chain, ensured foundation models were kept in scope in the EU AI Act against concerted corporate lobbying, and developed a comprehensive policy plan to address extinction risk from AI.

We are now beginning operations in the US and looking to expand our office and efforts in Washington D.C.

Role Description
At ControlAI, we’re always looking for exceptional talent to join our growing team. We recommend that you read The Compendium and A Narrow Path to get a sense of what we care about and if you’d be a good fit at our organisation.
What defines “exceptional” is varied, but what we tend to look for is a history of brilliance and high-agency successes. No background in AI and policy is required. If you’ve excelled in previous fields, we assume that you are talented and driven enough then you’ll be able to learn whatever is required on the job.

Some possible examples of brilliance we may look for:

  • You're a master in different technical subjects or industries.
  • You've founded and built a successful company or organisation.
  • You’ve operated at the highest levels of responsibility in government or your previous fields.
  • You've succeeded in highly competitive competitions, from programming or mathematics to debate.
  • You've built something that's surpassed state of the art tech.
  • You’ve shown promise as an upcoming talent in fields you care about (e.g. recipient of scholarships, Forbes 30 under 30, etc.).
  • Skills
