LinkedIn profileQuestions
Do I have to be in India?
No. Anyone can apply.
I have not started learning yet. Should I apply?
Advice lands better when you have context to attach it to. Try the AI Safety Atlas or BlueDot’s courses first, then come back.
I have no ML background. Should I apply?
Yes, if you have done the reading. Governance work often has no ML requirement, and there are technical paths that start from a non-ML background.
Can you get me a job?
No. We can help you work out what to do next and where to look, and introduce you to someone useful.
Can I apply again later?
Yes. If your situation changes, apply again.
