YAIA Fellowship Acceptance Form

Congratulations! You’ve been selected to participate in YAIA Introductory Fellowship for Summer 2026. We’re very excited to kick off our 8 weeks of meetings which will explore what we personally consider to be the world’s most pressing problem: ensuring that future AI systems are developed safely.

If you do not think you will have the capacity to commit the time and energy this summer, please let us know as soon as possible, and we will offer your spot to someone else. In that case, you would be very welcome to reapply next semester.
