Job Description

The Project

As an Expert AI Data Trainer, you will collaborate closely with a team of fellow expert trainers, AI developers, and researchers, actively influencing the ongoing development of the AI model itself. Your insights, feedback, and expertise will contribute directly to the AI’s evolution, making your role not only intellectually stimulating but also instrumental in pushing the boundaries of AI technology.

The goal of this AI is to become a safe, accurate, widely knowledgeable, and beneficial conversation partner to the world for a wide variety of purposes. Your job is to continuously train, evaluate, and test the AI’s knowledge, capabilities, and conversation skills to achieve this purpose.

Experience

Required

• Background in STEM-related field with focus in mathematics

Preferred

• Teaching/tutoring experience
• Masters/PhD in one or more major areas (STEM)
• Research experience
• Coding/Programming
• Additional expertise in non-STEM-related topics

Day in and day out, you will:

• You’ll spend the bulk of your time working with the AI, helping it analyze swaths of subject areas and distinguish between what is presented as fact vs. context vs. patterns of behavior. No two training sessions are alike, which means you’ll constantly encounter new and exciting challenges. Moreover, you’ll join forces with fellow trainers, combining your creative energies to conceive fresh initiatives and tackle problems in the AI domain.
• Goals and demands from AI vary over time. This implies that the nature of and instructions for tasks will also change frequently. You will need to be agile to work on a wide range of tasks, each following its own specific set of instructions that may sometimes apply to a batch of tasks but not to others.
• Our partner’s mission is to develop AI models that are safe, accurate, and beneficial to humanity. You will continuously evaluate the AI according to those criteria and our training methods. For example, you will be discerning the accuracy of the facts that the AI is outputting, but also the accuracy with which they interpret them.
• You’ll test the AI. How is testing different from evaluation? As the project grows over time, you’ll spend time actively trying to “break” the AI by “forcing” mistakes and improving the way these AI models recover. This is absolutely critical to its safety, accuracy, and use. You’ll document breaks and have the opportunity to recommend improvements to the training methods themselves to both our team and our clients.
