Cognitive AI (CAI) lab is a group of AI researchers and cognitive scientists based out of Intel Labs, and we are focusing on understanding what will characterize the next generations of AI systems. In our perspective, we are currently in an era where narrow, task specific solutions are replaced by broad and flexible algorithms and models, and we are about to enter a new phase, where solutions can be applied across many tasks and domains, can integrate and generate knowledge, ground representations in multi modal perception, interact and learn in real time, and communicate and deeply collaborate with humans. Intel Labs is an industry-leading research organization, responsible for driving Intel's technology pipeline, product innovations, and creating new opportunities. The mission of Intel Labs is to deliver breakthrough technologies to fuel Intel's growth. This includes identifying and exploring compelling new technologies and high-risk opportunities ahead of business investments. Our goal is to demonstrate first-to-market technologies with innovative usages for sensing and computing technologies. Intel Labs engages the leading thinkers in academia and industry in addition to partnering closely with Intel internal business units. We are looking for a Research Scientist Intern to support a project developing a benchmark suite for next-generation Cognitive AI systems. The project will involve designing and testing a dataset and assessment metric that could tease out model performance along one or more capability dimensions that are not handled well by modern AI systems. This is an internship position and compensation will be given accordingly. This is an internship position and compensation will be given accordingly.
