      With this change, we are seeking a new Executive Director to lead the Foundation’s movement-building programs. Currently, the Foundation has two core programs:

      Global Programs funds, convenes, and synthesizes the movement to increase the diversity, cohesion and impact of people working on internet health issues globally. The team has conducted research on AI transparency best practices; given grants

      Over the past few years, Mozilla’s leadership — including CEO and Chairwoman Mitchell Baker and President and Executive Director Mark Surman — have been working to expand the scope of this work. Surman has been focused both on pointing to the Foundation’s movement-building programs at the challenge of creating trustworthy AI and on expanding the Mozilla portfolio to include a new venture capital arm and a commercial AI R+D lab.

      Former executive director was the one aiming to create AI, and new executive director is filling the role now. So, it is the same circus clowns doing the show.

        The former executive director was also the president, and continues to be the president, where he will pursue AI.

        Starting in 2024, Surman will move full time to work on this growth and expansion work, remaining as Mozilla Foundation President.
