About the project
Help evaluate AI assistants on realistic science and engineering tasks. You give an AI assistant a task like one from your own work, work with it over several turns, and rate the result against a professional standard.
What you will do
- Write short, realistic requests, like a real user would type.
- Work with the assistant on the task: steer it, answer its questions, and push back when it is wrong.
- Rate the experience and the deliverable, and write short notes on what went well or badly.
Who we are looking for
- You are a scientist or engineer (for example chemist, physicist, civil, mechanical, electrical or chemical engineer).
- A degree and 3+ years of professional experience in a physical science or engineering field.
- You use AI assistants at least occasionally.
- You write clearly in English.
Details
- Remote, about 10 hours per week, flexible schedule.
- Pay: $84/hour.
- Only open to candidates in countries where the assistant is available.
