SW Engineer for ai project

Picture
Keen Software House a.s. is an independent game development studio based in Prague.

We have been very successful in the video games business and we are now expanding our interest into the field of artificial intelligence – fulfilling our long-term goal.

We are looking for a software engineer (architect and programmer) who will be developing a platform for prototyping general artificial intelligence models.

The platform will have a visual editor where developers can prototype and simulate architectures for artificial brains. We aim to develop an intuitive user interface to enable rapid prototyping. Simulations will be observed and debugged through observer windows.

We plan to add a back-end where third-party modules can be shared. We also plan to add advanced support for scheduling, distributed computing and data monitoring.

At the moment the platform is being developed in C# and CUDA; however in the near future we plan a complete port of the project to make it platform-independent (Windows, Linux, Mac, etc.).

The goal of this R&D project is to build a general intelligence: an artificial brain that can perceive, learn, and adapt to the environment in the same way that humans do. The design is “partially” inspired by the neocortex (sensory perception, motor commands, learning, hierarchical spatial and temporal memory and reasoning, autonomous decisions, goal selection, motivations, etc.), but “mostly” implemented through non-biological approaches (recurrent neural networks, holographic reduced representations, HTM, sparse distributed representation, deep learning, self-organizing maps, growing neural gas, computer vision, Hopfield networks, SVD, Kalman filters, reservoir computing, spiking neural networks, etc.) simulated on CUDA.

This is a long-term (10+ years) privately-funded R&D project with a $10mil budget. This project is NOT about video game bots, symbolic AI, image or speech recognition, etc. We are aiming to develop a general intelligence.

Marek Rosa, CEO and founder of Keen Software House, introduced our AI project on his blog where he talks about its purpose, short and long
term goals, how does it differ from other approaches and many more details: http://blog.marekrosa.org/2015/04/introducing-our-general-artificial_8.html.
