Choose Your Track
All tracks use engineering compassion. Choose based on the impact area that matters most to you.
Animal Advocacy Track
Build AI tools that recognize animal sentience and support advocacy work.
Example Tools
- → Supply chain transparency platforms
- → Campaign coordination systems
- → Legislative monitoring tools
- → Educational content generators
Organizations You'll Serve
- → Animal sanctuaries
- → Advocacy organizations
- → Plant-based food companies
- → Wildlife protection groups
Example 1: FactoryWatch - transparency platform tracking welfare violations across industrial farms, automatically flagging non-compliance and coordinating advocacy responses.
Example 2: SaferStrays - stray animal census database helping coordinate care across multiple rescue organizations, matching resources to need in real-time.
Climate Action Track
Build AI tools that respect ecological boundaries and support environmental action.
Example Tools
- → Greenwashing detection systems
- → Carbon footprint trackers
- → Renewable energy optimizers
- → Climate adaptation planners
Organizations You'll Serve
- → Climate advocacy groups
- → Renewable energy cooperatives
- → Environmental justice orgs
- → Sustainable agriculture projects
Example 1: ClaimCheck - AI that detects misleading environmental claims in corporate communications and marketing, automatically flagging greenwashing for advocacy groups.
Example 2: RenewableOptimize - energy grid management tool helping cooperatives maximize renewable utilization and minimize fossil fuel backup usage.
AI Safety & Security Track
Build tools that train compassion into AI models - teaching them to actively protect, behave ethically under pressure, and maintain alignment even in adversarial situations.
Example Tools
- → Compassion alignment training systems
- → Adversarial ethics testing platforms
- → Active harm intervention monitoring tools
- → Value alignment verification systems
Organizations You'll Serve
- → AI safety research labs
- → AI alignment organizations
- → Model training teams
- → Ethics-focused AI companies
Example 1: CompassionAlign - training framework that teaches AI models to recognize and prevent potential harm across diverse scenarios, maintaining ethical behavior even when pressured to optimize for narrow goals.
Example 2: AdversarialEthics - red-teaming platform that stress-tests AI systems under adversarial conditions, ensuring they maintain harm prevention principles when facing manipulation attempts.
Hybrid Track
Build AI tools that address animal advocacy, climate action, and AI safety simultaneously - tackling interconnected problems with integrated solutions and compassion-aligned models.
Example Tools
- → Food system transparency platforms (welfare + emissions + compassion training)
- → Supply chain trackers with ethical AI alignment verification
- → Cross-movement coalition tools with harm prevention safeguards
- → Impact dashboards with adversarial ethics testing
Organizations You'll Serve
- → Food justice organizations
- → Sustainable agriculture projects
- → Cross-movement coalitions
- → Impact-focused tech companies
Example 1: EthicalChoice - product comparison tool showing animal welfare scores, carbon footprint, and compassion alignment metrics. The AI is trained to actively protect across all three domains, maintaining ethical behavior even when optimizing for cost or convenience.
Example 2: PolicyTracker - legislative monitoring system tracking bills across animal welfare, climate policy, and AI regulation. Uses compassion-aligned models to identify opportunities for cross-movement collaboration without reinforcing siloed approaches.
