Research Intern - Foundations of GenAI

Research Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for research careers with a network of world-class research labs led by globally-recognized scientists and engineers, who pursue innovation in a range of scientific and technical disciplines to help solve complex challenges in diverse fields, including computing, healthcare, economics, and the environment. The mission of the AI Frontiers Lab is to expand the pareto frontier of Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities, efficiency, and safety through innovations in foundation models and learning agent platforms. Some of our projects include work on Small Language Models (e.g. Phi, Orca), agentic AI systems (e.g. AutoGen, MagenticOne, OmniParser), new transformer architectures (e.g. Belief State Transformers) and optimizers for scalable Large Language Model (LLM) Training (e.g. Dion). Our ongoing research areas encompass but are not limited to: Reasoning method for LLMs and multimodal models; New model architectures and training methods; Action models for automating web and computer tasks; Orchestration and multi-agent systems: automated orchestration between multiple agents incorporating human feedback and oversight; Evaluation and Understanding of model and agent capabilities.
