OpenPrinciples Fellowship: Collect and Learn Rationality Life Principles

  • Contact: open­prin­ci­ples@gmail.com

Hi!

I am Ti Guo, co-founder of EA UWaterloo, EA IBM, and OpenPrinciples. I am excited to introduce you to the OpenPrinciples Fellowship. It is a 3 hour-per-week commitment that will last 6-weeks and begins January 29th.

The fellowship provides methods, tools, mentorships, and group accountability to help you build the habit of identifying, iterating, and acting on your EA and Rationality-related life principles, mental models, biases, habits, and methods, around the EA and Rationality focus area of your choice.

Who:

The fellowship is organized by OpenPrinciples.org, a crowdsourced life principles wiki supported by the EA community. We are a team and a community of effective altruists, rationalists, entrepreneurs, engineers and community organizers who united through our interests in becoming more principled.

What:

  • Workshops to walk you through the process of finding, concluding, iterating, validating, and acting on principles.

  • Weekly 1-hour group conversations with a team of 4~6 members with similar interests, your EA/​ACX/​LW chapter, and/​or with friends you want to work with.

    • You will share and discuss life principles you found and those you conclude based on your interests.

  • Opportunities to meet and discuss with our partnered principle coaches who come from many different schools of thought.

Example topics of EA or Rationality-related life principles you can research about:

  • How to quantify the effectiveness of decisions?

  • How to evaluate one’s own biases when doing research?

When: The fellowship will run from January 29th to March 5th and is 100% free. The application deadline is January 22nd 23:59 PST.
