Pathfinder Fellowship

Apply as a Mentor

We think Pathfinder mentorship is a strong opportunity for impact, as it allows you to guide and support the development of the next generation of university AI safety groups.

Am I a good fit?

We're looking for mentors with:

Previous experience organizing a university group, typically at least 1 year.

Strong interest in mentorship.

Reliability and good communication skills.

If you fit the first two criteria, we encourage you to submit an application rather than worrying about whether you meet our bar for the rest.
