AI Engineer - Halo

Join our dynamic team and work on cutting-edge AI that empowers those with communication challenges. Collaborate with top researchers, innovate with generative AI, and make a real-world impact!

About Halo

Halo is a silently controlled language generation product that seamlessly integrates generative AI with interfaces such as electromyography (EMG) signals and eye tracking. Halo facilitates communication through an AI Persona, which consists of a textual representation of personalized, distinctive, and individualized data, tailored specifically to each user and context. By dynamically retrieving and generating information from the AI Persona in real-time, we can effectively shape the model’s output through prompt engineering, ensuring the delivery of personalized and contextually appropriate responses for any given situation. Other techniques for developing a personalized large language model for each user are also considered.

This product is part of the next generation of products under the Center for Responsible AI. We aim to revolutionize how people communicate, particularly those who face communication difficulties. Join us in our mission to connect these individuals with their loved ones.
