Recent advent of large language models has shown great promise for increased productivity across a wide range of industries. However, safety and trustworthiness of these models continue to be an open problem especially for commercial applications. IBM is dedicated towards developing responsible generative AI products with a principal focus on trust enabling enterprises to feel confident in the model responses.
The next-gen Foundation Models group at IBM is looking for Research Interns to develop novel architectures in large language models with an emphasis on safety and trustworthiness. You will be working on a highly impactful and highly visible research projects on large language models of future, which are built on neuro- and cognitive science inspired architectures and training algorithms, and result into lesser hallucination, better factuality and reasoning. If you are passionate about making impactful contributions towards next generation architectures in foundation models, come join our team at IBM Research.
