Recursion Pharmaceuticals | SLC, Utah | Onsite, full-time
We just closed our $60M series B to apply ML and data science to our lab's hundreds of millions of cellular images to find treatments for hundreds of diseases. Our long term vision is to use images and many other kinds of experiments plus modern ML to solve cellular biology enough to fix most things that go wrong in our bodies. Among other awesome folks, Yoshua Bengio is an advisor, and he helps our ML team come up with novel ways of tackling these problems.
We’re looking for:
* Data Scientists/ML researchers: Looking for highly experienced senior/principal-level data scientists and machine learning researchers who want a challenging problem, lots of rich data, and knowledge that their breakthroughs will seriously help people. No bio background needed.
* Biologists, computational biologists, automation scientists, and drug discovery experts.
http://www.recursionpharma.com/careers for more details and to apply.
Logistics: Salt Lake City, Utah. Hiking/running/biking is literally out our back door, and it's half an hour to 5 ski resorts. Great pay, health insurance, 401k, relocation assistance (onsite is required), equity, a top-caliber team, and help make a massively positive impact. Happy to sponsor/extend visas, but you need to already be authorized to work in the US--we can’t handle the lottery at this stage.
Tech: Data science: python scientific stack (pandas, numpy, scikit-learn, matplotlib, bokeh, etc). Software engineering: go, python, angular.js, react, javascript on aws and gce. Deep learning (e.g. convolutional networks) we're mainly using the python frameworks (keras, theano, tensorflow, etc).

Recursion Pharmaceuticals | SLC, Utah | Onsite, full-time
Recursion is a startup with about 70 people, generating rich biological data at a pace comparable to the biggest institutions anywhere doing biology and disease research. We generate literally millions of images every single week from experiments our biologists conduct in our labs. We’ve gotten more than $2M in multiple grants from the NIH, and last fall closed a $15M series A led by Lux Capital. We’re using imaging experiments to turn human cell experiments into massive amounts of rich biological data so we can find treatments using ML and data science for many diseases as fast as possible. Yoshua Bengio (one of the fathers of deep learning) just became an advisor for our ML work.
We’re looking for:
* Senior Data Scientists/ML researchers: Looking for highly experienced senior/principal-level data scientists and machine learning researchers who want a challenging problem, massive amounts of rich data, abundant GPUs, ML expertise all around, and knowledge that their breakthroughs will seriously help people.

blakeweb | 9 years ago | on: Superintelligence: The Idea That Eats Smart People
There's a section on Tractability--he can speak to his opinions better than I can: http://www.openphilanthropy.org/blog/potential-risks-advance...
TL;DR: He talks about several avenues of technical and strategy research that seem plausibly very useful and are not currently being pursued by more than a handful of people in the world. Many of these currently-engaged people are precisely the folks the author of this post disparages for being weird or insular.
One of the avenues of technical research he mentions is "transparency, understandability, and robustness against or at least detection of large changes in input distribution" for AI/ML systems. In other words, technical research to produce methods capable of reducing the likelihood of advanced systems behaving in severely bad, unexpected ways.
blakeweb | 9 years ago | on: Superintelligence: The Idea That Eats Smart People
For those interested in another very different analysis of the evidence for and against superintelligence being a worthwhile concern, here's Holden Karnofsky, executive director of GiveWell and the related Open Philanthropy Project:
- Up until 2016, Holden held the opinion that it was not a worthwhile concern. He describes why he changed his mind here: http://www.openphilanthropy.org/blog/three-key-issues-ive-ch...
- And he outlines his current arguments in favor of treating it as a significant concern here: http://www.openphilanthropy.org/blog/potential-risks-advance...
In that lengthy write-up, he addresses both the shorter-term risks from things like misuse of non-superintelligent AI, along with longer-term risks from superintelligent AI.

Recursion is a startup with less than 20 people, but we generate rich biological data at a pace comparable to the biggest institutions anywhere doing biology and disease research. We have literally millions of images from experiments we conducted in our lab, and we generate terabytes more each week. Our biggest challenge and biggest opportunity is to extract the most information we can from this massive amount of data. Biology background not necessary.

Logistics: Salt Lake City, Utah. Hiking/running/biking is literally out our back door, and it's half an hour to 5 ski resorts. Competitive pay, health insurance, relocation assistance (onsite is required), equity, a top-caliber team, and help make a massively positive impact. Happy to sponsor, but you need to already be US authorized.
Tech: Data science: python scientific stack (pandas, numpy, scikit-learn, matplotlib, bokeh, etc). Software infrastructure: mainly go. Deep learning (e.g. convolutional networks) we're mainly using the python frameworks (keras, theano, tensorflow, etc).
Send background and code to me (co-founder/cto) at [email protected]. Must be US-authorized. Our team of 18: http://www.recursionpharma.com/team

We closed our $60M series B last fall to apply ML and data science to our lab's hundreds of millions of cellular images to find treatments for hundreds of diseases. Our long term vision is to use images and many other kinds of experiments plus modern ML to solve cellular biology enough to fix most things that go wrong in our bodies. Among other awesome folks, Yoshua Bengio is an advisor, and he helps our ML team come up with novel ways of tackling these problems.
We’re looking for:
* Data Scientists/ML researchers: Looking for highly experienced senior/principal-level data scientists and machine learning researchers who want a challenging problem, lots of rich data, and knowledge that their breakthroughs will seriously help people. No bio background needed.
* Biologists, computational biologists, automation scientists, and drug discovery experts.

Logistics: Salt Lake City, Utah. Hiking/running/biking is literally out our back door, and it's half an hour to 5 ski resorts. Great pay, health insurance, 401k, relocation assistance (onsite is required), equity, a top-caliber team, and help make a massively positive impact. Happy to sponsor/extend visas, but you need to already be authorized to work in the US--we can’t handle the lottery at this stage.
