Meta is seeking a Research Scientist to join the Fundamental AI Research (FAIR) team, one of the top industrial AI research organizations in the world. In this role, you will help build world models that learn to understand and make predictions about the physical world, especially from video, and develop efficient algorithms for world model-based planning and control. Our team is driving an ambitious agenda to train and use world models for embodied agents. We innovate across related topics including self-supervised learning from video, predictive models, model-based reinforcement learning, and model-predictive control. We accomplish this by advancing research across the stack, including data curation, training large-scale state-of-the-art models, and designing robust benchmarks. We are looking for research scientists who share our passion for building efficient, scalable, and robust models of the world that will be part of the next paradigm in AI models.Research Scientist, World Modelling Responsibilities:Lead, collaborate, and execute on research that pushes forward the state of the art in world modelling and artificial intelligencePerform research that enables learning the semantics of data across modalities including images, video, text, and audioWork towards long-term research goals while identifying immediate milestonesDevelop and evaluate novel architectures and training methods for learning predictive models of visual, physical, or multimodal environmentsExplore applications of world models to planning, prediction, control, and decision-making for embodied agentsInfluence progress of...
