Microsoft Corporation Research Intern - Project Transcendence: Generative AI-driven Interaction Techniques for the Future of Apps & Documents in Redmond, Washington

Research Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for research careers with a network of world-class research labs led by globally-recognized scientists and engineers, who pursue innovation in a range of scientific and technical disciplines to help solve complex challenges in diverse fields, including computing, healthcare, economics, and the environment.

This position is for a research internship with the EPIC (Extended Perception, Interaction & Cognition) research group in Microsoft Research’s Redmond Lab. As part of the Transcendence project, the internship is focused on creating new interactive experiences that “blend artificial and human intelligence”, coupling the power of generative AI techniques with interaction design to envision the future of documents and applications.

Sought-after skills and topics of interest for this internship include (but are not limited to):

  • Generative AI: LLMs, stable diffusion, vision models (LLAVA, GPT4V), ControlNet, and related technologies for interactive applications

  • HCI system building: hands-on builders of interesting HCI systems, techniques, and toolkits, especially when leveraging generative AI, software prototyping with the web stack (javascript, node.js, react)

  • Interaction design: experience with devising multimodal interactions (touch, pen, speech), context sensing, responsive & adaptive UIs

  • Experience design: storyboarding, envisioning video techniques, wizard of oz, animations

We value your ideas and unique viewpoints on these topics, as well, and hope that our partnership and collaboration will shape initial directions into exciting, ambitious, and impactful research contributions that only you could have crafted.

The EPIC group conducts fundamental research that innovates at the nexus of hardware, software, and human potential. We are an interdisciplinary group of researchers, engineers, scientists, and designers at Microsoft Research who study Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) through prototyping, system-building, design sketching, and observational study of human behavior. You can learn more about the EPIC’s research agenda, publications, videos, and team members at EPIC - Microsoft Research (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/group/epic/) . You can learn more about Transcendence at Transcendence - Microsoft Research: Overview. (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/transcendence/overview/)
