Apple ML Research is hiring a PhD intern to make foundation models know what they know
sineadwilliamso · x · 2026-10-07
Apple Machine Learning Research is hiring a PhD research intern focused on foundation model reliability — the core question being what it takes for models to "know what they know and say what they know." Research includes probing internal representations, training models from scratch, controlled synthetic settings, and whether early pre-training structure improves reliability. Applicants need ML/NLP/cog-sci PhD status, PyTorch/HF experience, large-scale experiments, and publications at top venues; from-scratch LM training or pre-training data pipeline experience is a plus.
