About the Role
We’re working with a highly specialized AI research lab building new benchmarks for how frontier AI systems perform real scientific research. They are looking for PhD students and postdocs across STEM fields to help reproduce papers, validate AI-generated research, and define what “good research” should look like for AI systems.
We are looking for one Fellow per STEM field to help create a new benchmark for evaluating how well frontier AI models perform real scientific research.
The standout part of this opportunity: the benchmark will be released publicly with a research paper and open evaluation set, and Fellows will be named lead / first authors.
