Teams of human experts painstakingly synthesize insights and drive decisions from vast volumes of noisy, real-time information. For examples, in financial services, expert analysts hone in on and use key economic insights to inform high-stake investment decisions. Although the volume of information only continues to grow, past technology has only had a passive role, and today's human experts struggle with information overload. We believe AI should take an active role in complex knowledge work, becoming an equal collaborator to human experts.But such an AI will not "simply emerge" through scaling, or the development of general purpose LLMs. At Samaya, we are developing an AI-system purpose-built for "expert intelligence" for reasoning and interacting with real-world information networks. Our AI is designed to consume dense, noisy real-time information, distill key insights, form connections, contextualize findings, and make expert predictions. We are building a future where our expert intelligence AI can transform global knowledge work for the better.Put Users first. Our users rely on us to do their jobs. We exist because our users trust us to help them achieve their goals. In return for this trust users place in us, we keep their needs as our top priority.Win as a collective. We are high achievers with a drive to succeed. We build strong bonds over this shared drive. We dive in to help when one of us needs it. We’re kind to each other and boost each other to succeed and grow professionally and personally. We build trust with each other by making commitments and consistently delivering on them. This trust means we genuinely support each other, embracing feedback as a tool for growth and improvement. We win by operating this way, as one team.Focus and iterate quickly. Bias for action makes us build and learn quickly. Iterating fast requires clarity on what outcomes we are targeting and why. Prioritizing the important things, taking full ownership and initiative, making fast initial progress, and rapid iterations lead to the best outcomes.Innovate Relentlessly. We pursue novel insights, challenging the status quo and reimagining how things are done. We aren’t attached to the past when improving our product and how we work in the future. We actively invest time in innovation, thinking “outside the box” to consistently raise our standards.Prioritize Outcomes over Egos . We are committed not to a person, an idea, or an opinion but to continuously making progress to our goals. Sometimes, our goals are ambiguous; in those moments, we iterate, learn, and move on to the next inquiry. We ask the tough questions with kindness, dropping our egos in our pursuit of evidence. For our business goals, we learn from our users. For our scientific goals, our understanding is built through rigorous experimentation, research, and observation. For our personal goals, we embrace candid feedback and collaborative learning to guide our progress.Apply for this job
