Research Internship

at  Odyssey

Odyssey is pioneering world models, the next frontier of artificial intelligence. By learning from the real-world, Odyssey is training a new kind of generative model, capable of generating cinematic, interactive worlds in real-time. Odyssey’s mission is to reinvent film, gaming, and beyond.
Odyssey was founded in late 2023 by Oliver Cameron (Cruise, Voyage) and Jeff Hawke (Wayve, Oxford AI PhD), two veterans of self-driving cars and AI. They’ve since recruited a world-class team of AI researchers from Cruise, Waymo, Wayve, Tesla, Microsoft, Meta, and NVIDIA; lead computer graphics researchers from EA, Ubisoft, and Valve; and technical artists behind Hollywood blockbusters like Dune, Godzilla, Avengers, and Jurassic World.
Odyssey has raised significant venture capital from GV, EQT Ventures, Air Street Capital, DCVC, Elad Gil, Garry Tan, Soleio, Jeff Dean, Kyle Vogt, Qasar Younis, Guillermo Rauch, Soumith Chintala, and researchers from OpenAI, DeepMind, Meta, and Midjourney. Ed Catmull, the founder of Pixar, serves on Odyssey’s board.

• You will conduct independent research supported by Odyssey’s technical staff.
• You will have access to our computational infrastructure, data, technical mentorship and engineering support.
• At the end of the internship, you will have a piece of independent research which may be publishable. This could contribute to your thesis.
• This will be for a period of three to six months. This may be at any time of year and we are able to accommodate a variety of academic schedules.
