The Stripe Economics of AI Fellowship aims to help fill that gap by supporting foundational academic research in the area.
The fellowship invites graduate students and early-career researchers who are interested in studying the economics of AI to apply, regardless of prior experience.
The initial cohort will include 15-20 fellows and will form the foundation of a community at the bleeding edge of economic research.
Thematic Areas
While the fellowship welcomes researchers interested in any aspect of the economics of AI, broadly defined, it is particularly interested in supporting high-impact research that:
- is focused on the economics of transformative AI
- is forward-looking
- is expected to be of durable importance, and
- moves fast
Eligibility
- Initial fellows must to be grad students or early-career researchers (including postdocs, assistant professors, etc.) in economics.
- Researchers from any country
- Prior experience in AI economics is welcome but not required; exceptional candidates without any background in the field are encouraged to apply, including researchers in departments outside of economics
- Fellows are not required to have a project proposal to apply
Benefits
- Fellows receive a grant of at least $10k
- A community of like-minded researchers studying the economic implications of AI.
- Funding to attend an exclusive conference in San Francisco (early summer 2025), featuring leading economists and technologists in this space.
- The opportunity to gain access to unique datasets through Stripe and its customers.
Deadline: April 15, 2025
