Convergence Fellowship Program
AGI Economic Policy Fellowship: Spring 2025
We organized a 12-week intensive research program, focused on designing policy interventions for the upcoming AI economic transition.
Working in small teams across seven topics, fellows produced seminal research addressing critical policy questions on taxation, supply chains, legal rights, economic modeling, public utilities, and more.
This fellowship aims to fill a crucial gap in economic policy research and kickstart the international conversation on how societies should respond to the upcoming labor market transformations from the adoption of powerful AI systems.
