About AI Reasoning Evaluation

AI training is the human side of building modern artificial intelligence. Expert contributors review model outputs, write prompts, develop strong example answers, and provide feedback that helps AI systems become more accurate, thoughtful, and useful.

This work focuses on written model responses and requires disciplined, field-specific judgment. Your evaluations can help identify subtle inaccuracies, incomplete answers, and shallow reasoning that general reviewers may miss.

• Work with generative AI evaluation and RLHF materials
• Assess accuracy, depth, completeness, and reasoning quality
• Help define standards for high-quality AI performance

The Role

As an AI Model Reasoning Evaluation Expert, you will assess AI-generated responses in a technical or humanities discipline. You will combine research-grade analysis with clear written communication to determine whether responses are accurate, well-supported, complete, and logically sound.

The role includes expert response evaluation, prompt creation, reference-answer development, and detailed critique. It is listed at the entry level and requires 20 or more hours per week.

• Pay: $245 to $280 USD per hour
• Time requirement: 20+ hours per week
• Work arrangement: Remote and worldwide
• Language: English

What You'll Do

You will create and assess written materials designed to test meaningful subject-matter understanding. Your feedback should explain not only whether a response is correct, but also why its reasoning succeeds or falls short.

• Evaluate AI-generated responses for factual accuracy, depth, and reasoning quality
• Create expert-level prompts that test meaningful subject-matter understanding
• Develop reference answers demonstrating rigorous, well-supported reasoning
• Write detailed critiques explaining errors, omissions, and weaknesses
• Detect subtle inaccuracies and shallow reasoning
• Help establish expert-level performance standards for AI systems

Requirements

Candidates should bring specialized expertise in a technical field, English, literature, or journalism, together with strong research methodology and critical-analysis skills. A PhD from a top-ranked university is preferred, and PhD-level expertise is required for the subject-matter work.

You must be able to evaluate the quality, completeness, and reasoning of written responses and communicate complex ideas clearly in excellent written English.

• PhD-level expertise in a technical field, English, literature, or journalism
• Ability to evaluate AI responses for accuracy, depth, and reasoning quality
• Skill in creating expert prompts and rigorous reference answers
• Research-grade critical analysis for identifying subtle errors
• Excellent written English and clear explanation of complex ideas

Helpful Background

Experience with academic writing, peer review, technical writing, data analysis, or research-based evaluation can support success in this work. The strongest contributors will bring disciplined, field-specific judgment to AI training materials and explain their decisions precisely.

• Academic writing
• Peer review
• Technical writing
• Data analysis
• Research-based evaluation
