Job description

Schmidt Sciences is a nonprofit organization founded in 2024 by Eric and Wendy Schmidt that works to accelerate scientific knowledge and breakthroughs with the most promising, advanced tools to support a thriving planet. The organization prioritizes research in areas poised for impact including AI and advanced computing, astrophysics, biosciences, climate, and space-as well as supporting researchers in a variety of disciplines through its science systems program.
About the AI & Advanced Computing Center ("AI Center")
The AI Center at Schmidt Sciences is a grantmaking and research group that views AI as a transformative force for scientific discovery and societal progress. Over the next decade, we aim to support key researchers who are working to make AI systems competent, trustworthy, reliable, and able to effectively partner with human scientists on the next generation of discovery. We will also make selected distinctive investments in beneficial AI areas where philanthropy has a unique advantage. By supporting enabling infrastructure, foundational research and targeted programs in science disciplines, the AI and Advanced Computing Center will create the conditions for AI-enabled discovery to achieve its promise.
The AI Center currently has three focus areas:
  1. AI for Science - using AI to improve how scientists generate hypotheses, conduct experiments, analyze data and produce new knowledge - in a way that specifically accelerates the discovery process.
  2. Science of AI - understanding and controlling AI systems to mitigate and manage potential risks from advanced AI while improving AI reliability and performance in areas of limited commercial interest and market failure. Existing programs include AI2050 and Science of Trustworthy AI.
  3. Beneficial AI - providing scientific foundations and datasets for understanding the larger human impacts of AI. Existing programs include Humanities and AI Virtual Institute and AI at Work.
