Aloe is the epistemic intelligence lab building AI we can trust with humanity's most important applications. We work on research and products that bring introspection to AI and critical thinking to machines. Our Agent Models are designed for decision-making in the real world – AI that understands what it does and doesn't know, reasons about its limitations, and directs its own learning to self-improve.
Please read the job description and include in your outreach why you fit not just the role but also our culture. We strive to be Level 5 humans, co-creating a deliberately developmental atmosphere.
Will the "normies" slow down development of AI? Is it useful pressure to dislodge us from a presently-dystopian path, or is it just prolonging the inevitable?
Aloe is the critical thinking layer for agents – to know why they believe what they do, how confident they are, and what actions they can take to increase that confidence. It’s the only path to AI we can trust, delegate to, and rely on.
Aloe exists to build tools to help human cognition succeed in an information-dense world it did not evolve to handle. We believe this is the most important problem to solve today.

What you’re saying ascribes more to the definition of intelligence than the author’s. “Memory that modifies behavior” doesn’t have any stated purpose whereas you’re suggesting that its purpose must be to reduce uncertainty. The latter sounds closer to a definition of knowledge - i.e. experience compressed into something with predictive power.
“panoply of grifters and chancers and financial engineers” — accurate
Yet, let’s look at intelligence for a sec… it’s been evolving for quite some time and isn’t stopping at humans. Humans are building intelligence at a rate far faster than biological evolution. It is almost inevitable (pending humans wiping ourselves out by any number of catastrophic failures of governance) that we will build intelligence that supersedes our own. Yeah?
I’m a co-founder of Aloe (https://aloe.inc) - a generalist AI that recently became state of the art on the GAIA benchmark. As I was hand-checking the output of our test to ensure Aloe had done the task, not just found answers in some leak online, I had a real come-to-Jesus moment when it hit that this agent is already a better problem-solver than most of the adults I’ve worked with in my career. And this is the floor of its capability.
It is a humbling moment to be human. The few humans at the helms of companies developing these technologies will inevitably reshape the trajectory of humanity.
To the Best Talent in the World: an Invitation
Come join a state-of-the-art team tackling the most important problems in AI – in a society that actually wants you to be here.
This is why a neurosymbolic system is necessary, which Aloe (https://aloe.inc) recently demonstrated exceeds performance of frontier models, using a model agnostic approach.
It is definitively not possible. But the frontier models are no longer “just” LLMs, either. They are neurosymbolic systems (an LLM using tools); they just don’t say it transparently because it’s not a convenient narrative that intelligence comes from something outside the model, rather than from endless scaling.
At Aloe, we are model agnostic and outperforming frontier models. It’s the anrchitecture around the LLM that makes the difference. For instance our system using Gemini can do things that Gemini can’t do on its own. All an LLM will ever do is hallucinate. If you want something with human-like general intelligence, keep looking beyond LLMs.

The future we’re building for:
- Commoditize access to expertise, capability, and AI’s economic promise for both businesses and end-users
- Make new discoveries, products, and experiences possible at speeds unbound from human performance
- Defend against negligent or malicious use of AI with internal governance and risk evaluation at the foundation
- Invert the extraction economy with AI that respects human cognition instead of exploiting it
