Neuro-Symbolic AI

TOOLS

& JOBS

We regard as essential to our mission the production of open source software (free and usable for both research and commercial purposes) implementing the best ideas in neuro-symbolic AI we’re aware of, for core AI tasks including:

  • Data science (e.g. classification)

  • Natural language processing (e.g. generative AI)

  • Sequential decision making (e.g. for robotics)

This is primarily led by the Institute’s sister organization, the Centaur AI Corp (see below), with possible scientific contributions by the Institute. See the Institute’s current open-source projects on GitHub:

Centaur AI Corporation

Like many non-profit organizations, the Institute has an affiliated for-profit entity, the Centaur AI Corp, for the subset of activities which further its mission but which may also be best served through development in a different legal structure. To learn more about the corporation, send us an email.

Software development

The primary focus of the Centaur AI Corp is to perform research and commercial development of neuro-symbolic AI tools and systems. It is a Benefit Corporation which formally serves the mission of the Institute.

Advising organizations

For ambitious startups and larger enterprises seeking to take advantage of the powerful technologies emerging from this next wave of AI, we have the industrial experience to help you learn more and assess whether your problem can be well addressed, and even help you execute a proof-of-concept project through to a deployed system.

To accelerate the development of the neuro-symbolic AI ecosystem, we advise organizations of all kinds on how to utilize neuro-symbolic AI technologies, including non-profits, government agencies, startups, venture capital and private equity firms, and large enterprises.

Our Working Culture

For some insight about our culture/style (both the Institute and the Corp, whether employed by us or collaborating with us), here is an incomplete list of some aspects:

  • “One team”: We maximize our ability to achieve great things by rowing in one direction and mutual trust. This includes generosity in terms of help and acknowledgement of others.

  • Ethics: For example, proper crediting and meritocratic operation is essential.; we are clear about non-profit vs for-profit pursuits and carefully segregate them into different organizations.

  • Debate: We are trying to solve difficult problems, so the answers are unclear and require robust ego-free and impersonal debate, which we can do by trusting in our teammates that anything can be questioned, and by anyone.
