Neuro-Symbolic AI.
Research and Education.

"Centaur AI" refers to systems designed to collaborate in a deeply symbiotic way with humans — narrowing the gap between today's AI and that goal by contributing fine-grained human knowledge and preferences rather than unknowably large datasets and hope.

We help lead a growing movement around neuro-symbolic AI to develop the next generation of AI concepts and tools.
