Public Policy Demos

About Anthropic

Anthropics 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.

About the role

We are seeking a creative and technically skilled individual to develop and deliver compelling product demonstrations for policymakers government officials and policy influencers. As a key member of our policy team you will play a crucial role in Anthropics mission to build beneficial AI by effectively communicating the capabilities opportunities and potential risks of our technology to decisionmakers and thought leaders in the policy sphere.

Your work will span a range of audiences and use cases from demonstrating national security implications to showcasing government service applications. Youll also create demos that help policy professionals understand how to use Claude explain various features and illustrate how models are trained and deployed. Your demos will be instrumental in helping policymakers envision the impact of AI on their work and their constituents lives while also conveying the transformative potential and scalability of the technology.

This role demands a unique blend of technical understanding policy acumen creativity and strong communication skills. Youll collaborate closely with our research and technical teams to build grounded and impactful demos while also working with nontechnical policy team members to ensure the demonstrations resonate with diverse policy audiences. Your ability to show not tell our AI policy views through handson demonstrations will be key to influencing understanding and decisionmaking at the highest levels of government.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain a comprehensive library of recorded demos and guidebooks for various live demo flows covering a wide range of policyrelevant scenarios and use cases
• Create demonstrations that effectively communicate frontier capabilities across enterprise public sector and national security contexts highlighting both opportunities and risks
• Design demos that illustrate advances in capabilities across model generations and convey the pace of progress in the field
• Craft demonstrations that provide insights into nearfuture capabilities likely to have significant societal or national security impacts
• Develop accessible demos to help nontechnical audiences understand the basics of how AI models function
• Translate complex technical research insights into broadly accessible demonstration material
• Collaborate with internal research and technical teams to ensure demos accurately represent our technologys capabilities and limitations
• Work closely with policy team members to identify and develop demos tailored to specific policy audiences and objectives
• Deliver live demonstrations to highlevel government officials policymakers and influencers with clarity and impact
• Continuously innovate on demonstration techniques to effectively convey Anthropics AI policy views through handson experiences

You may be a good fit if you have:

• 5 years of experience in a technical role related to AI/ML with a strong understanding of large language models and their applications
• Demonstrated ability to communicate complex technical concepts to nontechnical audiences
• Experience working with or presenting to government officials policymakers or in policyadjacent roles

Logistics

Education requirements: We require at least a Bachelors degree in a related field or equivalent experience.

Locationbased hybrid policy: Currently we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25 of the time. However some roles may require more time in our offices.

Visa sponsorship:We do sponsor visas! However we arent able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this.

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if youre interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones were building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team.

How were different

We believe that the highestimpact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few largescale research efforts. And we value impact advancing our longterm goals of steerable trustworthy AI rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. Were an extremely collaborative group and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highestimpact work at any given time. As such we greatly value communication skills.

The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic including: GPT3 CircuitBased Interpretability Multimodal Neurons Scaling Laws AI & Compute Concrete Problems in AI Safety and Learning from Human Preferences.
