The Pulitzer Center is excited to announce the opening of applications for the 2024-2025 cohort of AI Accountability Fellows. Through these fellowships, the Pulitzer Center aims to support in-depth, high-impact reporting projects that document and explain the opportunities, harms, and regulatory and labor issues surrounding AI systems.
The AI Accountability Fellowships provide selected journalists with financial support, a community of peers, mentorship, and specialized training to pursue in-depth reporting projects. These projects will interrogate how AI systems are funded, built, and deployed by corporations, governments, and other powerful actors.
For the 2024-2025 cohort, the Pulitzer Center welcomes projects on a broad range of issues related to AI. However, this year there is a special emphasis on supporting at least one project focused on transparency and governance of AI. Interested journalists can learn more about the Fellowships by visiting the FAQ section on the Pulitzer Center’s website.
Launched in 2022, the AI Accountability Fellowships have so far supported 18 journalists from five different continents, fostering a diverse and global community of investigative reporters dedicated to uncovering the complexities of AI technologies.
Applications for the 2024-2025 AI Accountability Fellowships are now open. Journalists with a passion for exploring the profound impacts of AI systems are encouraged to apply and join a network committed to enhancing public understanding and accountability in the field of artificial intelligence.
