The Alien Technology Transfer Group leads top-class innovators to success by converting visionary ideas into tangible realities.
In Alien Technology Transfer AI Lab we are on a mission to accelerate the adoption of Artificial Intelligence for next-generation enterprise applications. Among them, we are currently creating an innovative product for the creation of highly customized technical and business documents based on the use of Large Language Models such as GPT-4, LLAMA, and light Transformer model based on the BERT architecture DistilBERT as well as a cloud-based application to mitigate factual inaccuracies and cognitive biases when reading digital content for investment analysis. We are also involved in a European collaborative project to develop a new class of contextually aware chatbots, uniquely combining small language models with innovative attention mechanisms inspired by cognitive theories of mind.
This is a unique opportunity for an Artificial Intelligence Project Manager to be part of a young AI Laboratory's product development and help build and develop an AI platform technology. In this position, you will collaborate with international R&D institutes to create AI with a human-like ability to focus its computational resources and intelligently control that concentrate and interact with people in a socially competent manner. The main project involves an integrative approach to awareness engineering to establish consciousness in machines.
