Job Description:

Project description:

While generative AI models, such as Large Language Models (LLMs) and diffusion models, have reached unprecedented results, but they lack interpretability and are inefficient, especially when involved in complex reasoning and scientific quests. In the Emergent Machine Intelligence Team at Hewlett Packard Labs, we are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with artificial intelligence. We specialize in creating cutting-edge machine-learning algorithms and applications by augmenting state-of-the-art LLMs with concepts and tools from symbolic AI, physics simulators, statistical physics, and non-equilibrium thermodynamics. We aim to revolutionize AI by creating first-principled generative models for system-2 thinking that can perform reliable and interpretable complex reasoning over multimodal data while delivering efficient hardware performance. Join us to be a part of a team that shapes the future of high-performance AI.
