Rooted in theory,
engineered for discovery.

FirstPrinciples is reimagining scientific exploration with an AI physicist, built to explore new perspectives and long-standing questions in fundamental science.

Informed by core scientific principles, we develop sophisticated models that go beyond pattern recognition to support the scientific process and open new pathways for inquiry.

About Us

As a non-profit organization, FirstPrinciples aims to accelerate discovery in fundamental science by developing an AI Physicist—an intelligent system purpose-built for theoretical reasoning, deep exploration, and scientific insight.

AI physicist

We’re building our model from first principles, integrating domain knowledge, the structure of scientific reasoning, and the intricacies of physics itself. Our focus is on producing results that are testable, falsifiable, and aligned with the core values of scientific inquiry.

Our model

FirstPrinciples’ AI Physicist is a specialized model designed to contribute meaningfully to fundamental science. This isn’t a general-purpose assistant or typical LLM—we’re building a model tuned to engage with physics at a deep level to advance the frontiers of fundamental science.

Collaboration

Good science is inherently collaborative. We work closely with researchers and institutions to guide development, shape direction, and ensure our AI Physicist is built in alignment with scientific exploration.

Scientific integrity

We prioritize transparency, reproducibility, and collaboration. Our model is designed to support scientific exploration, and we actively involve the research community in validation and oversight.
