Subject Matter Experts: Designing Difficult AI Prompts
You'll start with a short screening interview
We are running a paid trial to build a bench of people who are exceptionally good at designing hard tasks that expose where AI models fall short. This work helps us understand the boundaries of current model capabilities and evaluate their performance on complex, multi-step requests. High performers in this trial may be considered for ongoing paid work of the same kind.
You will spend about an hour translating a real workflow you know deeply into a demanding prompt for an AI model. Using your own ChatGPT account, you will test your prompt, identify where the AI fails, and refine it to ensure it requires real reasoning and produces a concrete file. You will then write a detailed grading rubric that a stranger could use to evaluate the AI's attempt. Throughout this process, your screen, camera, and microphone will be recorded so we can assess your critical thinking.
We are looking for professionals and subject matter experts who possess deep knowledge of a specific, complex workflow in their job or personal life. You must be capable of quickly judging the quality of an output in your chosen domain. We welcome applicants from all professional backgrounds who have a computer and a basic understanding of how to interact with large language models.
- Select a familiar, complex workflow and translate it into a demanding AI prompt
- Test the prompt in ChatGPT to identify failures, increasing the difficulty if the AI succeeds too easily
- Draft a comprehensive rubric for grading the AI's response to your prompt
- Submit your prompt, failure notes, grading rubric, and the generated output file
- Keep your recording active to walk us through your thought process during the task
- Deep expertise in a specific professional or personal workflow
- Access to a laptop or desktop computer and a ChatGPT account
- Comfortable recording your screen, camera, and microphone while completing the task
- Ability to evaluate AI outputs critically and formulate detailed grading criteria
- You will be engaged as an independent contractor.
- This is a fully remote opportunity that can be completed on your own schedule.
- Opportunities can be extended, shortened, or concluded early depending on needs and performance.
- Your participation will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institution.
- Payment is issued as soon as your work is approved.
- We are unable to support H1-B or STEM OPT candidates at this time.
