The team
In the Applied Research Team, our purpose is to enable and facilitate the use of AI systems in the real world.
We formulate research questions inspired by applications and solve problems that block the safe and reliable deployment of AI and work closely. Our team partners with other teams in DeepMind on both applied and fundamental research projects.
Our research is grounded in applications with a potential for broad impact. We seek opportunities to improve products with the help of AI. Our team builds expertise and gains insight on applications by working on high-impact projects. We identify specific barriers preventing practical use of AI in the real world and focus on targeted and high risk research efforts which, in the medium to long-term, are likely to have outcomes with a path to production.
The role
Having pioneered research in the world's leading academic and industrial labs in PhDs, post-docs or professorships, Research Scientists join DeepMind to work collaboratively within and across Research fields. They develop solutions to fundamental questions in machine learning, computational neuroscience and AI.
Drawing on expertise from a variety of fields including deep learning, reinforcement learning, computer vision, language, neuroscience, safety, control, robotics and multi-agent, our Research Scientists are at the forefront of groundbreaking research!
Key responsibilities:
- Design, implement, and evaluate models, agents and software prototypes for real world AI.
- Bridge the gap between fundamental research and products by addressing research questions arising in real world problems and integrating novel research into applications.
- Report and present research findings and developments including status and results clearly and efficiently both internally and externally, verbally and in writing.
- Engage actively in team collaborations to meet ambitious research goals.
- Work with external collaborators and maintain relationships with relevant research labs and key individuals as appropriate.
- Work in collaboration with our Ethics and Governance teams to ensure our advances in intelligence are developed ethically and provide broad benefits to humanity.
