About the Team
Privacy is a cornerstone of our mission at OpenAI. As a part of the Privacy Team, you will work on the frontlines of safeguarding user data while ensuring the usability and efficiency of our AI systems. You will help us understand and implement the latest research in privacy-enhancing technologies such as differential privacy, federated learning, and memorization in a large language model. Moreover, you will focus on investigating the interaction between privacy and machine learning, developing innovative techniques to improve data anonymization, and preventing model inversion and membership inference attacks.
Your responsibilities could involve designing privacy-preserving machine learning algorithms, enhancing the privacy guarantees of our AI models, and studying the trade-offs between model performance and data privacy. You will also work on creating privacy standards and guidelines for AI system development and deployment, and conduct exploratory research to mitigate the unintended consequences of AI and machine learning on privacy. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with various teams at OpenAI to integrate privacy-enhancing methods into our AI systems.
Your work will not only contribute to OpenAI's goal of ensuring artificial general intelligence (AGI) benefits all of humanity but will also help shape the discourse on privacy in the age of AI, fostering a broader impact on the technology industry and society at large.
