The company advertises at weekends, with at least six focussing on the border areas of AGI or artificial general intelligence, from data experts and in-depth learning researchers to law directors and even interns at $70 a day. The role is mainly located in Beijing, although some will be based on the start-up dormitory city in eastern China.
These posts give a glimpse of DeepSeek's ambition to stay at the forefront of Chinese artificial intelligence and compete with global competitors. Agi, technical directors including OpenAI chief Sam Altman and Softbank Group Corp. Founder Masayoshi's son portrayed it as an industry holy grail, which refers to the AI that understands, learns and applies knowledge. Unlike more professional models such as Chatgpt, AGI refers to general cognitive abilities similar to humans, raising concerns that AI may surpass human intelligence and run AMOK.
DeepSeek joins players like Google, including OpenAI, Anthropic and Alphabet Inc., who have shed light on plans to explore the field. Liang Wenfeng, the founder of Seclusion, was cited in an interview touting the field.
In the ads posted over the weekend, DeepSeek seeks legitimate persons to help build AGI’s risk governance framework and communicate with government agencies, regulators and research institutions. For in-depth study research work, Chinese companies prefer applicants who “achiev good results in industry competition.” According to the post, candidates who publish papers for AI conferences or contribute to open source projects will be given priority, even for potential interns.
The job ad joins existing positions advertised on popular recruitment site Boss Zhipin. According to recent ads, the best-in-revenue role is the role of AGI researchers, which may drop 1.26 million yuan ($172,000) per year.
The Chinese company has previously advertised for Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Head of Administration and Hiring Manager, suggesting that the startup is undergoing a major expansion.
