Analyst, The Anthropic Institute

<div class="content-intro"><h2><strong>About Anthropic</strong></h2> <p>Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems.</p></div><h2>About the Anthropic Institute&nbsp;</h2> <p>The Anthropic Institute is a new externally-facing function within Anthropic whose job is to benefit the public by giving the world new information about how the powerful AI systems we build are affecting our own company, as well as the broader economy, threat landscape, and the people and organizations that interact with our systems. <br><br>The Anthropic Institute will generate and release information about four highly societally relevant challenge areas. These are:</p> <ul> <li>How our AI systems change jobs here and elsewhere, and the economy writ large</li> <li>How the expressed personality and values and normative behaviors of our AI systems affect the people, organizations, and societies that interact with them.&nbsp;</li> <li>How “closing the loop” on AI development leads to a fundamental shift in the relationship between humans and machines, both by changing how we build AI systems, and also by making AI systems potentially evolve much faster.&nbsp;</li> <li>Altering the defensive and offensive capabilities available to us and people in the world, with significant impacts on national security and the balance of power.</li> </ul> <h2>About the role</h2> <p>As a Member of Analytical Staff for The Anthropic Institute, you’ll spend your time researching how Anthropic is tackling the challenges the Institute is focused on, synthesizing what you learn from across the organization, and turning that into rigorous analysis that shapes both internal decisions and public understanding.</p> <p>You’ll be talking to colleagues all over Anthropic—building a picture of how different teams are approaching some of the most consequential questions in AI—and then helping the Institute communicate that work and its implications to the world. You will use Claude aggressively, creatively, and daily, to help you surface insights about what Anthropic is doing with regard to these problem areas. <br><br>Some representative projects we can imagine working on include:</p> <ul> <li>Clearly explaining the implications of automating AI research with AI systems.&nbsp;</li> <li>Convening outside and internal experts to generate policy options a government may want to utilize if GDP growth rates in developed economies exceed 10% a year.&nbsp;</li> <li>Learning from our custom
