About the Role
This role bridges the gap between humanities academics and the engineering teams building large-scale AI models by providing the sophisticated oversight required for their advancement. As a subject matter authority, you will apply your intellectual standards and research discipline to act as a benchmark for evaluating cutting-edge artificial intelligence. By joining this specialized network, individuals with expertise in disciplines such as classics, history, religious studies, literature, and philosophy can participate in advanced assessment projects without repeatedly applying for new roles. Your work will involve nuanced interpretation, shifting beyond basic data annotation to include developing complex questions based on primary texts and academic discourse, as well as critiquing the logic and accuracy of AI-generated content to ensure responses are intellectually rigorous and contextually precise.
Requirements
- You must possess an advanced academic degree in a humanities field or demonstrate an equivalent level of professional and research experience.
- You need exceptional writing abilities to clearly explain the rationale behind your assessments.
- You should be capable of navigating tasks with high levels of ambiguity and provide actionable feedback if project guidelines require better definition.
Responsibilities
- You will develop top-tier evaluation content, including the creation of interpretive tasks accompanied by relevant source materials and definitive answer keys.
- You will conduct thorough assessments of AI outputs, confirming that the models maintain logical consistency and demonstrate an accurate grasp of historical or cultural frameworks.
- You will serve as a vigilant reviewer, identifying and reporting cases where models present convincing but incorrect information, distort scholarly consensus, or invent false references.
Benefits & Perks
- You will receive project-specific pay generally between $45 and $60 per hour, determined by the complexity and nature of each assignment.
- You will enjoy schedule flexibility as part of a dedicated expert pool, receiving invitations to collaborate on new projects as they become available.
