OverviewAre you passionate about solving logical problems and working through challenging math? Turing is looking for PhD-level researchers in physics to test the reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). You’ll create physics problems, analyze model responses, and identify gaps in logic or understanding. The goal is to measure how well these models handle abstract thinking and structured problem-solving.ResponsibilitiesCreate physics problems and review how the AI solves them, sharing insights on its understanding of complex reasoning and logical steps.Analyze model responses, identify gaps in logic or understanding, and document findings to improve model evaluation.Engage in task-based work such as scenario-driven physics problems and interpretation of model reasoning.Sample TopicsA high-energy pion travels through a material, losing energy at a constant rate. Given its rest mass and proper lifetime, calculate the probability that it decays within a certain distance from its origin.For a 1D Brownian motion starting at the origin, define the last return time to zero and the time spent on the positive axis as fractions of total time. Find the exact joint probability distribution of these scaled times, expressed using the Heaviside function to specify its support.QualificationsCurrently enrolled in or have completed a Ph.D. or Postdoctoral in Physics, Applied Physics, or a related fieldStrong research and analytical skillsAble to provide clear, constructive feedback with examplesStrong written communication, especially in remote settingsComfortable working independentlyStable computer and internet accessNote : This position is open only to candidates who have completed or are currently pursuing a Ph.D.; applications that do not meet this criterion will not be considered.Time Commitment & Contract DetailsCommitments Required: at least 4 hours per day and minimum 20 hours per week with 4 hours of overlap with PST.
