About Astera:
Jed McCaleb founded the Astera Institute as a non-profit dedicated to developing high leverage technologies that can lead to massive returns for humanity.
About Obelisk:
Obelisk is the Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) lab at Astera. Obelisk’s mission is to produce AGI in a safe, socially beneficial way. We are focusing on different problems and different approaches than some other AGI efforts. In particular we are focused on the following problems:
- How does an agent continuously adapt to a changing environment and incorporate new information?
- In a complicated stochastic environment with sparse rewards, how does an agent associate rewards with the correct set of actions that led to those rewards?
- How does higher level planning arise?
What we're looking for:
We are looking for experts in these specific research domains:
- Large-scale meta-learning (learning to learn).
- Unconventional computing and AI approaches.
- Novel approaches to selective (as opposed to indiscriminate) generative modeling.
- Continual learning, solutions to catastrophic forgetting.
- Long-term memory.
- Autonomous AI, intrinsic objectives (e.g., via curiosity, exploration, representation).
Our approaches to solving the above problems are inspired by cognitive science and neuroscience. To measure our progress, we are implementing reinforcement learning tasks where humans currently do much better than state-of-the-art AI.
Your Mission:
We are looking for a Machine Learning Research Scientist to join the Obelisk team. You will collaborate with engineers and other scientists to generate hypotheses, design experiments, and implement models and algorithms for making progress on the above-mentioned problems.
Location:
You will be required to be in the office in Berkeley at least 2 days per week because we find it significantly improves team cohesion and makes collaboration easier.
