AI Engineer at Artificial Societies

What is Artificial Societies?

• We use AI to simulate large groups of people and how they interact with each other.
• Organisations use us to instantly see how target audiences would react to marketing and comms, and test hundreds of versions without risk, before launching in the real world.
• Our mission is to build a societal model to enable infinite experimentation, so that people have complete awareness of outcomes before decisions.
• We started in late 2024, did YC W25 and raised $5.3m in seed stage funding from Point72 Ventures and others, including angels from DeepMind and Sequoia Scout. We remained a team of just 4 people to date - we believe in smaller teams of highly capable and empowered people.
• You should try our public demo simulations.
