  • Publish insights that advance our collective understanding of emerging technology.

What will the internship offer the student and what will they learn while they are with you? E.g. skills they could learn/develop and experience they could gain.

Strange Research Fellows dive deep into the evolving landscape of AI and deep software, exploring both technical foundations and human implications. We’re building a community of anthropologist-futurist-technologists who can navigate between code and culture. Thinkers who can connect the dots between what’s possible and what’s meaningful. You should be both optimistic (able to see the adjacent possible) and skeptical (able to challenge claims, assumptions, and hype). Holding both modes simultaneously is core to the Strange research method.

Our mission is to map out disruptive inventions and identify the most promising opportunities for founders, operators, and investors. If this resonates with you, here’s what being a Strange Research Fellow involves.
