CHT’s Emerging Voices in AI and Society Fellowship

Program Overview

Center for Humane Technology (CHT) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to realign the most consequential technologies with humanity’s best interests. CHT works to make sense of how consequential technologies are impacting society — and what can be done about it. We interpret and bring clarity to a fast-moving landscape, raise the questions that technology forces us to confront, and connect day-to-day harms to the deeper systemic incentives driving them. Our role is not just to sound the alarm, but to elevate the conversation, shaping the urgent ideas of our time, and to advance solutions so that people feel equipped to act. Our newly launched Emerging Voices in AI and Society Fellowship exists because this work requires more voices than CHT currently has. We have identified five focus areas for applicants to choose from and will choose three fellows, representing unique focus areas, for our inaugural cohort. Applicants are welcome to apply for up to two focus areas.
