Short, hands-on tasks such as recording videos, sorting images, rating AI answers or checking data. Most take 5 to 60 minutes each.

Can I apply from outside Latin America?
This role is open only to people based in Latin America. The limit is usually about where the platform can legally hire, so applying from elsewhere rarely leads to an offer. Check the description for tax or right-to-work rules before you apply.
Are Handshake AI training listings internships?
Some are. Handshake lists internships and separate "AI Trainer" fellowships. If the description says "1099" or "Contract", the role is freelance work.
