Conversation Host Guidelines

Host AI Conversations That Build Your Profile

Thank you for joining the AI Frontier Network as a Conversation Host. These guidelines help you produce high-quality published conversations that advance your standing in the AI community.

Your Role as a Conversation Host

What we expect from every AIFN Conversation Host

Draw Out the Story

Your role is to surface the guest's real experience and point of view. Ask the questions that reveal what they have actually learned, built, or decided.

Stay on Topic

Each conversation has a defined topic or theme. Keep the discussion focused while allowing organic exploration of adjacent ideas.

Represent the Network

You are a published contributor to AI Frontier Network. Bring curiosity, preparation, and professionalism to every conversation.

Your Commitments

What you agree to when you become a Conversation Host

Preparation

Come prepared with a clear topic focus and 2-3 substantive questions. Review the guest's background before the call so the conversation starts with context, not introductions.

Availability

Confirm scheduling in a timely way. If you need to reschedule, notify AIFN and your guest at least 48 hours in advance.

Professionalism

Maintain a respectful, editorial environment. No promotional pitches, no recruiting during conversations, no pay-to-speak arrangements.

Quality Over Volume

One excellent published conversation is worth more than several rushed ones. Prioritize depth and specificity over breadth.

Content Guidelines

Standards for topics and discussions

Original Perspectives

Focus on practitioner insights, real-world applications, and forward-looking analysis. Avoid repackaging press releases or surface-level news summaries.

Balanced Viewpoints

Present AI developments with nuance. Acknowledge both opportunities and risks. Avoid hype-driven narratives or fear-based framing.

Respect Confidentiality

Guests may share pre-launch work, internal challenges, or unpublished research. What is shared in the conversation stays in the conversation unless explicitly approved for publication.

What You Get as a Conversation Host

A media opportunity and a network you can build on

Published Contributor Affiliation

Your name and profile are credited on every conversation you host, published across AI Frontier Network.

Access to AI Leaders

Host conversations with founders, operators, executives, and investors you would not otherwise get time with.

LinkedIn-Shareable Assets

Clips, quotes, and conversation pages you can share publicly to build your profile and demonstrate your engagement at the frontier.

Growing Public Portfolio

Each published conversation adds to your credited portfolio on AI Frontier Network, building your presence over time.

Non-negotiable standards for all AIFN activities

Zero Tolerance

Harassment, discrimination, and hate speech are not tolerated. This includes but is not limited to language or behavior targeting race, gender, sexuality, disability, or religion.

Intellectual Honesty

Attribute ideas and work correctly. Do not misrepresent your qualifications or experience. If you do not know something, say so.

AI Ethics

Promote responsible AI development. Discussions should consider societal impact, safety, and ethical implications alongside technical capabilities.
