This job is for a remote freelance position, meaning you
can work from home, and it's open to people living in India. The company,
Outlier, helps other companies improve their artificial intelligence (AI)
models by using human feedback to train the AI. In this particular role, you
would be helping to train AI models that focus on generating and improving
code. This means you’ll be helping these AI models learn how to write better
code by using your knowledge of programming.
Here’s what you would be
doing:
- Answering
coding-related questions: You'll be asked to
create and respond to questions about computer science and programming.
This helps the AI learn and improve its understanding of coding.
- Evaluating
code: You’ll look at code generated by the AI models and
rank or evaluate how good it is. You’ll be providing feedback that helps
the AI get better at writing code.

some non-core tasks, such as onboarding or during slower phases of a
project, the pay may be a little lower. Some projects also offer bonuses
based on performance.

a freelance position, meaning you are responsible for managing your own
