About this role
Pluralis Research https://pluralis.ai/ works on Protocol Learning https://arxiv.org/abs/2412.07890— training large models in a fully decentralised way on small consumer-grade devices connected via the internet. Despite being dismissed as infeasible, we have made significant advances on this problem https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.01260, most recently training an 8B llama model from scratch with devices in physically different regions.

If you want your work to shape the future of truly open innovation in the large model regime, join us.
