Outlier review

Outlier is run by Scale AI and connects subject-matter experts with AI companies that need human feedback to improve large language models. It says it has paid more than $500 million to experts and onboarded over 900,000 graduates, master’s students and PhDs.

What the work looks like

The three most common tasks are:

• Writing challenging prompts: you think of a hard question in your field that an AI model gets wrong, then write the correct answer.
• Creating grading rubrics that define what a good answer looks like.
• Rating and ranking answers from different models.

How to get accepted

Onboarding has four steps: create a profile, import and review your skills, verify your identity, then pass skill screenings. General onboarding takes 30 to 90 minutes, and each project has its own extra onboarding. Apply in the domains where you are strongest, because screenings decide which projects you are matched with.

Pros and cons

What you need to apply

• Valid government ID and a mobile phone from your country of residence
• Up-to-date resume
• LinkedIn profile showing education and work history
• Usually at least undergraduate-level knowledge in your field, plus good written English
