דרושים LLM/NLP & Generalist AI Agents- MSc and PHD-Summer internship 2026- Research Lab בחיפה

**Introduction

**IBM Research is at the forefront of creating intelligent systems that transform how humans interact with computers. We are currently developing the next generation of configurable

Generalist AI Agents: CUGA [https://cuga.dev, https://github.com/cuga-project/cuga-agent]. This advanced technology is designed to independently navigate and execute tasks

across complex APIs, MCP tools, web environments, and business workflows. CUGA currently ranks among the leaders in global benchmarks such as AppWorld and WebArena, leveraging advancements in Agentic AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), and Reinforcement Learning. It combines capabilities in natural language processing, model fine-tuning, and interactive decision-making. By integrating a semantic

understanding of APIs, MCP tools, and web elements with advanced action planning, CUGA aims to handle tasks that typically require significant human intervention.

**Your Role And Responsibilities

**We are seeking a highly motivated intern to join our research team and help advance the

field of Generalist AI agents.

As a Summer Intern, You Will

• Innovate & Develop: Design, develop, and refine cutting-edge AI agents and

Agentic frameworks, incorporating advanced technologies such as LLMs,

multimodal models, and reinforcement learning systems.

• Experiment & Benchmark: Conduct rigorous experiments on leading

benchmarks—including WebArena, AppWorld, and Tue-bench—to assess and

enhance the capabilities of AI agents.

• Data & Prototyping: Curate datasets, fine-tune models, and demonstrate

performance capabilities through early-stage prototypes for web-based automation

solutions.

• Research Collaboration: Collaborate with cross-functional teams of researchers

and engineers to publish findings in top-tier venues and drive innovation within

IBM’s groundbreaking solutions.
