About the role
- This foundational technology promises to revolutionize robotics, science, healthcare, education, gaming, defense, and beyond.
- Odyssey's founders previously pioneered the most complex application of physical AI: self-driving cars.
Responsibilities
- Define and drive original research into the foundational open problems of world modeling: temporal coherence, causal reasoning, long-horizon prediction, and user-intent alignment.
- Build and mentor a small, high-output research group, guiding work from hypothesis through experimental validation to prototype demonstration.
- Someone who works from first principles: you define the problem before reaching for a method, and you build minimal systems to prove what's possible before scaling.
- you define the problem before reaching for a method, and you build minimal systems to prove what's possible before scaling.
Requirements
- Experienced leading or mentoring a small research group, with a track record of taking projects from open question to publication or deployment.
Benefits
- Move beyond diffusion and transformer paradigms - design novel architectures, learning objectives, and training frameworks that reframe what generative interactive video can do.
- A staff-level or senior ML researcher with a strong publication record in generative modeling, video synthesis, multimodal learning, or adjacent areas.
Company info
- Odyssey https://odyssey.ml is an AI lab pioneering general world models: causal, multimodal systems that learn to predict and interact with the world over long horizons. This foundational technology promises to revolutionize robotics, science, healthcare, education, gaming, defense, and beyond.
- Odyssey's founders previously pioneered the most complex application of physical AI: self-driving cars. They've now brought together a world-class research team from DeepMind, Tesla, Waymo, Meta, Apple, and Wayve, who have made significant contributions to language models (DeepMind Gemini), video models (DeepMind Veo), world models (Wayve GAIA), and autonomous systems (Tesla FSD).
- Odyssey has raised significant venture capital from GV, Amazon, AMD, EQT, NVIDIA, Natural Capital, In-Q-Tel, Elad Gil, Jeff Dean, Guillermo Rauch, Garry Tan, Kyle Vogt, and researchers from OpenAI, DeepMind, MSL, Recursive, and Thinking Machines.
