Interning at RILabs was an exciting and hands-on experience! I had the opportunity to meet thought leaders in the field, collaborate with the RILabs team, and develop my technical knowledge and writing skills. I appreciated the opportunity to manage and lead projects: it definitely helped me grow and succeed. If you are interested in a challenge, driving forward work that will make an impact, and developing new frameworks for responsible tech, then I strongly encourage you to apply!
- Kasandra Negrete, Summer Intern '21
Interning with RIL was an incredibly unique and fulfilling experience. At its core, this program is designed to help interns gain a better understanding of this complex industry and drive impact forward. I personally appreciated how many opportunities there were to own projects, the highly collaborative nature of the team, and the accessibility of more senior people at the organization.
- Gabby Ollig, Summer Intern '21
At RIL, I had the opportunity to think creatively and critically about complex issues in the tech space. I gained knowledge and expertise in the most complex matters involving tech, ethics, and law. RIL and its brilliant team encouraged me to stay intellectually curious and actively demonstrate my unique perspective in a notoriously exclusive industry.
- Hilary Lee, Fall Legal Intern '21
My internship at Responsible Innovation Labs granted me the space to combine my passion for technology and policy. After two months of researching the scope of tech ethics, I left RIL feeling confident that the path towards a more responsible and ethical future could be made.

We believe that internships should be mutually beneficial. We’re interested in what drives your passion for tech and how you believe you can contribute to build an industry that is fundamentally good.
That’s why we’re committed to creating a collaborative environment where you can take full advantage of educational and professional development opportunities, while working on real projects that drive the RILabs mission forward.

SPOTLIGHT
What our work with startups teaches us about AI policy
AI is firmly in the business, labor, and cultural zeitgeist. And policymakers are paying attention: This year, 40 states have introduced new AI legislation in the US alone.
Increasingly, RIL is being asked what a good AI policy looks like. We put together our initial take on the matter.
Responsible AI Tools
Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers enormous promise and great risk. In this pivotal moment as new companies are funded and built, it is critical that startups incorporate Responsible AI (RAI) practices into product development from the outset. These resources are a result of an unprecedented collaboration among operators, investors, civil society, and the public sector.

Commercialized artificial intelligence is firmly in the business and cultural zeitgeist. And policymakers are paying attention: This year, 40 states have introduced new AI legislation in the US alone.
Increasingly, RIL is being asked what a good AI policy looks like. We put together our initial take on the matter, hoping to iterate on it in public.
