About AI Training Work

Large language models improve when experienced people create challenging examples, review model-generated responses, and explain what makes an answer accurate, complete, and useful. This role applies that human evaluation process to the video games domain, including development, design, esports, platforms, publishers, and gaming communities.

• Design prompts that test knowledge and reasoning.
• Rate model outputs for accuracy, completeness, nuance, and consistency.
• Identify hallucinations, outdated information, and difficult edge cases.

The Role

OpenTrain is recruiting a Video Game AI Evaluation Expert to evaluate and improve large language models. You will use deep knowledge of the video games industry to create advanced prompts, assess AI-generated responses, develop evaluation datasets, and provide evidence-based feedback to AI researchers.

This is a contractor, part-time project for candidates located in the United States. The project has a planned commitment of 40 hours per week for 8 weeks, requires at least 4 hours of overlap with Pacific Standard Time, and lists a minimum time requirement of 20+ hours per week.
