Shaping the future of robotics.

The RAI Institute aims to solve the most important and fundamental problems in robotics and AI.

Robotics has come a long way in the past 40 years, but we still have a long way to go.

We need to make robots smarter, more agile and dexterous, and generally easier to use — more like people. Once we do that, robots and other types of intelligent systems will increase productivity, free people from dangerous work, care for the disabled, and generally help people live better lives.   

 

We, at the newly formed RAI Institute, want to accelerate that future, creating future generations of robots that are far better than anything that exists today. To achieve that goal, we plan to hire the best talent we can find and support them with the best resources, including equipment, facilities, computing, and staff, all wrapped in a culture that thrives on technical fearlessness, fundamental thinking, cooperative teamwork, respect for each other, and technical fun. 

 

If you have mad skills in robotics, machine learning, computing, software or hardware engineering and want to make a difference in the future of AI and robotics, consider joining us on what I expect to be an important and gratifying journey.
