Cluster of Excellence Bilateral Artificial Intelligence



Call for Applications



For the recently established Cluster of Excellence CoE Bilateral Artificial

Intelligence (BILAI), funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF), we are

looking for more than 50 PhD students and 10 Post-Doc researchers (m/f/d)

to join our team at one of the six leading research institutions across Aus
tria

(see below).



In BILAI, major Austrian players in Artificial Intelligence (AI) are teamin
g up

to work towards Broad AI. As opposed to Narrow AI, which is characterized

by task-specific skills, Broad AI seeks to address a wide array of problems,

rather than being limited to a single task or domain. To develop its founda
tions,

BILAI employs a Bilateral AI approach, effectively combining sub-symbolic AI

(neural networks and machine learning) with symbolic AI (logic, knowledge

representation, and reasoning) in various ways. Harnessing the full potenti
al

of both symbolic and sub-symbolic approaches can open new avenues for AI,

enhancing its ability to solve novel problems, adapt to diverse environment
s,

improve reasoning skills, and increase efficiency in computation and data u
se.

These key features enable a broad range of applications for Broad AI, from

drug development and medicine to planning and scheduling, autonomous

traffic management, and recommendation systems. Prioritizing fairness,

transparency, and explainability, the development of Broad AI is crucial

for addressing ethical concerns and ensuring a positive impact on society.



The research team is committed to cross-disciplinary work in order to provi
de

theory and models for future AI and deployment to applications.
