Common questions
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.
What does a typical Mindrift task involve?
Read a scenario, write a short prompt for the AI (around 100 words), evaluate two AI responses to it, fact-check the outputs, then write a brief explanation (around 50 words) on which response is better against the project rubric. The focus is clarity, safety, and rule-following, not creative writing.
What does a typical day look like in expert AI training work?
Tasks are slow and careful. One task can take 45 to 60 minutes of checking citations or calculations, and you're judged on quality more than speed.
Is AI training work the same as traditional consulting?
It's closer to teaching. You grade the AI's logic, correct its mistakes and write the expert reasoning it lacks, instead of producing work for a client.
What does Generalist work look like for a Weekend Paid Study Opportunity - Los Angeles?
You check AI answers to Generalist questions, correct their errors and write expert reasoning. As a Weekend Paid Study Opportunity - Los Angeles, you're hired for that judgment, so hands-on Generalist experience matters.
