New York, United States Slingshot AI Full time
Note: We hire interns throughout the year. Please let us know when you apply when you'll be available to start.

We're a team of machine learning engineers training task-specific generative models (like ChatGPT) for psychology. Our goal is to build an AI therapist to help people change their mind and their lives in the ways that they want to. We partner with organizations around the globe and power use cases, including AI-assisted crisis text response, while securing best-in-class datasets to power our models.

Success to us means every human being in need of support having somewhere to go. We're a well-funded, seed-stage startup backed by top-tier tech investors involved in Huggingface, Runway, Notion, Stability, Scale, and other best-in-class AI companies.

We're building a powerful team by keeping a focus on the mission and empowering folks with the autonomy, flexibility, and resources to do their best work. We dream big and iterate fast. If that sounds like home, we'd love to hear from you.

The Role

As a conversational writing intern, you'll work on the voice of our AI counselor, Ash. You'll report to Neil Parikh, former co-founder of Casper.

Your work will involve reading books and psychological content and writing informational and empathetic content in a conversational format. You will need to translate complicated ideas into conversations that can reach people and have an impact on them. It'll be a bit like content writing, except that instead of developing one static piece of content, you're helping craft a dynamic AI-powered persona.

[Please note that this role may involve reading disturbing or triggering content about sensitive topics.]

About you:
  • You are a great writer, and have written dialogue (we love film students)
  • You're either an Undergrad, Master's or PhD student.
  • You can read and digest information quickly, and are exceptional at explaining complex ideas in simple ways.
  • You have a demonstrated track record of excellence, including coming up with new ideas or improving upon existing ideas
  • You have very high agency. If you don't know how to do something, you figure it out.
  • You are excited about working on AI related to mental health
  • Requirement: Able to work in New York City or London
What We Offer
  • Stipend
  • Hybrid work style
  • Unparalleled growth opportunity - learn faster than you would anywhere else
  • Have a massive impact, working alongside people who care deeply about mental health
Values
  • Bias towards action
  • Authenticity
  • Strong opinions, loosely held
  • We're nowhere near the end of history
