Common questions
Who is Mindrift good for?
Freelance writers, editors and generalist AI tutors with strong English and good research skills. You don't need a tech degree. Mindrift is built by the data company Toloka, and it also opens better-paid projects in fields such as cybersecurity, medicine and law to verified experts.
How much does Mindrift pay?
General evaluation tasks, such as fact-checking and tone checks, pay $15-30/hr and don't need an advanced degree. Verified experts can earn $40-100+/hr on specialized projects, so you can start as a generalist and move to a specialist track.
Do I need a PhD for research-level AI training roles?
The best-paid roles usually expect a PhD or current enrollment. The domain assessment decides, though, and if you can solve the problems the degree matters less.
Is research-level AI training steady work?
Usually not. Work comes in projects, such as training a model on quantum mechanics, that can last a few weeks. Plan for it like a short fellowship.
What does STEM work look like for a Freelance Mechanical CAD&Simulation Engineer - AI Trainer?
You check AI answers to STEM questions, correct their errors and write expert reasoning. As a Freelance Mechanical CAD&Simulation Engineer - AI Trainer, you're hired for that judgment, so hands-on STEM experience matters.
What specific skills does this listing call for?
Coding, Python, and English are named directly in the listing. If you don't have hands-on experience with these, expect the screening to test for them.
