At Elicit, we are pioneering a research agent designed to leverage unlimited computational resources during test time, all while ensuring that its reasoning remains transparent and verifiable.About the ResidencyIn this 3-month residency, you will collaborate with our team to enhance computational procedures (operators) that will reliably improve knowledge states through extensive iterations. Your work will focus on developing methodologies that maintain stability over thousands of iterations, ensuring meaningful advancements in understanding.A knowledge state encapsulates structured information; for instance, a scientific paper can be portrayed as claims backed by evidence and interconnected through logical reasoning. This may be complemented by scratchpads, self-notes, search trees, and additional contextual information.We aim for improvements that allow LLMs to make genuine progress in comprehension, distinguishing inferences from raw evidence, establishing connections between concepts, constructing clearer explanations, and revealing reasoning gaps. Unlike conventional ML systems that prioritize merely functional outcomes, we seek epistemically sound enhancements that render knowledge states more beneficial while remaining accessible to human interpretation.Your contributions will begin with simpler scenarios, such as refining scientific papers, before scaling to more intricate reasoning tasks. The goal is to create systems that exhibit clear reasoning across prolonged timelines, addressing core challenges in AI transparency and scalable reasoning.About YouIdeal candidates will possess experience with LLMs, an intuitive grasp of systematic and verifiable reasoning, and a commitment to transparency in AI. Exceptional applicants will also demonstrate a solid software engineering foundation, alongside tangible examples of innovative abstractions that advance automated reasoning.
