Cohort 1 of the ERAI Fellowship brings together senior journalists and media professionals from across the world. Selected through a rigorous process that assesses editorial experience, professional standing, and commitment to public-interest journalism, they represent the first generation of ERAI-trained human guardrails for the AI era. They come from different regions, different media environments, and different editorial traditions — united by a shared conviction that responsible AI reporting is not optional. It is essential.
