Research Internship
Odyssey, Palo Alto +1
About the job
Who we are
Odyssey https://odyssey.ml is an AI lab pioneering general world models: causal, multimodal systems that learn to predict and interact with the world over long horizons. This foundational technology promises to revolutionize robotics, science, healthcare, education, gaming, defense, and beyond.
Odyssey’s founders previously pioneered the most complex application of physical AI: self-driving cars. They’ve now brought together a world-class research team from DeepMind, Tesla, Waymo, Meta, Apple, and Wayve, who have made significant contributions to language models (DeepMind Gemini), video models (DeepMind Veo), world models (Wayve GAIA), and autonomous systems (Tesla FSD).
Odyssey has raised significant venture capital from GV, Amazon, AMD, EQT, NVIDIA, Natural Capital, In-Q-Tel, Elad Gil, Jeff Dean, Guillermo Rauch, Garry Tan, Kyle Vogt, and researchers from OpenAI, DeepMind, MSL, Recursive, and Thinking Machines.
What we're looking for
Odyssey is looking for talented research interns for 2026. We offer the opportunity for PhD students to collaborate with our machine learning research teams, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in state-of-the-art visual AI. You will define and pursue a research project which advances state-of-the-art general-purpose world models. You'll have the support of Odyssey's research and engineering teams, data, and computational resources. We encourage seeing the impact of your research in the models we ship publicly!
