These flaws limit the utility of AI systems in interactions with humans. If you are interested in how to build less artificial, more intelligent and interpretable algorithms by learning from brains and human behavior and cognition, join our team! We are hiring at all levels, from interns to research scientists and engineers. We are looking for enthusiastic machine learning scientists and engineers with an entrepreneurial startup spirit with strong backgrounds in math, statistics, and machine learning (no experience in neuroscience, psychology or cognitive science is necessary). We aim to create the next generation of AI algorithms that will be more robust, generalize better, and can cooperate intuitively with humans.</span></p><br><br><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-variant-numeric:normal;font-variant-east-asian:normal;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">POSITIONS:</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-variant-numeric:normal;font-variant-east-asian:normal;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">We have opportunities to work on several AI projects in the US and Europe at multiple locations.
