Launched at the AI Action Summit in Paris in 2025, the organisation has already raised hundreds of millions through partnerships with the French government, AI Collaborative, and other leading governments, philanthropic, and industry partners. </span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">If AI is the transformative revolution we perceive it to be, it needs to serve the public interest today and tomorrow. At Current AI, our goal is to help build a collaborative, collective, and global vision for AI, not one governed by a specific country or a company. </span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">Today there are builders and researchers around the world developing public interest AI building blocks (datasets, models, compute, audits and applications), but efforts are not always co-ordinated or additive. To have a genuine shot at being an alternative, we must harness the full breadth of work happening across open source and public interest AI. That means helping transform individual, decentralised initiatives into a coherent Public Interest AI movement, and helping unblock builders via funding or tool development or connecting efforts together. </span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"color: rgb(15, 71, 97); font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt\">Role Overview</span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\">We are seeking a hands-on Head of Impact Communications to build and lead a lean, high-impact communications team and work with an agency team, focused on the broader movement surrounding Current AI - not just our organizational story.
