Teams of PauseAI

PauseAI consists almost exclusively of volunteers (sign up here

). We are organized in teams, each working on a different aspect of our movement. Every team has a leader, members, a Google Drive folder and a Role + private channel on the discord server
. Other than that, Teams are free to choose how they want to work. Check out the vacancies to see some specific roles that you could take. If you want to create a new team, reach out to the Oversight team leader (see below).

  • Partnership

    PauseAI is not alone in the fight against superhuman AI. The Partnership Team finds common goals and potential for collaborations with other organizations.

  • Oversight

    The Oversight team can be thought of as the management team, the group of people who manage the other teams.

  • Lobby

    Educate members of effective lobby strategies.

  • Strategy

    Inform the Oversight team of strategic insights.

  • Protest

    Plan (international) protests, set dates, respond to events, have a clear message and strategy for protests, empower local protest organizers, give them materials and educate them.

  • Onboarding

    Welcome new members who join through Discord, newsletter or fill in the join  form. Help new members find their way around and help them find a team or project to join.

  • Organisers

    Report back on how local organizing efforts have been going and share best practices with other local organizers.

  • Microgrants

    Facilitate Microgrant applications and oversee these projects.

  • Discord

    Our Discord server is where the magic happens. Over 1500 people are on that digital space to share insights and collaborate towards a Pause. So the Discord team has a very important job!

  • Comms

    Everything that you see that PauseAI does publicly (this website, social media accounts, newsletters, press releases, youtube) is done by this team!

  • Software

    Maintain the website, the Discord bot, the CRM and other software tools.

  • Artist Team

    Artists make cool things. The Artist Team works on various (mostly visual) projects to make PauseAI more effective. Of course without using AI art.

  • Funding

    Make sure PauseAI has funds to do its various tasks! We find potential funding sources and make sure we don't go broke.
