Kairos is an incredible team and I feel proud to play a part. If any of our roles interest you, you should apply! Happy to chat about the org as well, DMs open :)
I'm very excited to announce that Kairos just raised $50M from @coeff_giving to build talent infrastructure for AI safety. We're using it to ambitiously grow our team and portfolio of projects, and we're now hiring for 10 open roles. 🧵

I wouldn't have fully pivoted into AI safety a year ago without Kairos and their amazing programs. So excited!

The deadline for my SPAR stream with @GovindPimpale is tonight AOE, we’ve been brainstorming some exciting projects across AI macrostrategy and emerging tech which I’m excited to collaborate on with talented contributors!
