About the job
AE Studio, based in Los Angeles, is dedicated to enhancing human agency by ensuring a prosperous future with Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). We firmly believe that alignment is achievable; it simply requires more rigorous effort. Our mission centers on exploring overlooked ideas that could lead to groundbreaking advancements.
For over a decade, we have collaborated with a diverse range of clients, from innovative startups to industry giants like Samsung, Walmart, Berkshire Hathaway, and Goodfire. Our expertise lies in addressing intricate technical challenges and bringing ambitious products to fruition. We apply this same methodology to our research endeavors, partnering with visionary researchers who are delving into neglected alignment concepts. As a comprehensive R&D team, we integrate engineering, science, and product development, enabling us to swiftly enact genuine progress on one of the most pressing issues of our time.
Being fully bootstrapped, we operate independently of venture capital or private equity. Profits generated from our client engagements are reinvested into internal Skunkworks projects, technical research, and policy initiatives. This autonomy allows us to pursue high-risk, high-reward ideas that traditional funding models often overlook, facilitating long-term commitments without the constraints of short grant cycles or investor expectations.
Our alignment initiatives encompass in-house projects, collaborations with clients such as Goodfire AI, and partnerships with esteemed organizations like Redwood Research, Anthropic, and DeepMind. We have previously led pioneering research in brain-computer interfaces and continue to broaden our scope as the challenges increase.
If you are passionate about genuinely addressing alignment issues and eager to contribute to meaningful projects, we would love to hear from you!
