Professor Zittrain Projects Summer Internship

Professor Jonathan Zittrain has worked on projects related to the ethics and governance of artificial intelligence; battles for control of digital property; the regulation of cryptography; new privacy frameworks for loyalty to users of online services; the roles of intermediaries within Internet architecture; and the useful and unobtrusive deployment of technology in education. In the upcoming year, he will be diving further on projects related to machine learning and artificial intelligence. The summer intern will work directly with Professor Zittrain and BKC's Senior Research Coordinator on a variety of projects across the summer. Applicants should have an interest in machine learning and/or artificial intelligence, public policy, digital and internet issues. Technical programming experience or digital law or policy experience is strongly favored. The time commitment would range between 10 – 35 hours per week, depending on project needs and candidate availability, and preference will be given to candidates who are available to spend part of their time in-person at BKC’s offices in Cambridge, MA.
