TLDR

Developing safe AGI by automating research and code generation, leveraging frontier-scale pre-training, domain-specific RL, ultra-long context, and inference-time compute.

Magic’s mission is to build safe AGI that accelerates humanity’s progress on the world’s most important problems. We believe the most promising path to safe AGI lies in automating research and code generation to improve models and solve alignment more reliably than humans can alone. Our approach combines frontier-scale pre-training, domain-specific RL, ultra-long context, and inference-time compute to achieve this goal.

If you feel you have something to contribute to the mission and you're a high-energy person, we would love to explore working together in roles that might not be listed on our careers page. We make exceptions for exceptional people.
