AI training work, grouped by task

Most people arrive knowing their profession but not what the actual work looks like day to day. This page groups AI training roles by task, so you can see the kind of work involved before you pick a field. The same task often runs across many professions, so it’s worth browsing here even if your specialty already has its own page.

There are seven task types below. Each one links to its own page with the roles that are live right now, and a live count so you can see where the current demand sits.

What each task involves

Model evaluation and comparison. You’re shown two or more AI responses to the same prompt and asked to rank them, or to score a single response against a standard. This is the most common format in AI training and needs no technical background. Your judgement about what makes a good answer in your field is the whole point.

Expert reasoning and quality assurance. Higher-skill work where you define the standard rather than apply it. You write the reference answers, set the marking criteria, or check work others have scored. This draws directly on deep domain knowledge and pays accordingly.

Annotation and labelling. You tag, categorise, or mark up content so a model can learn from it. The task is structured and the platform gives you the scheme. What you bring is the accuracy and the domain understanding to apply it correctly.

Transcription. You convert audio to accurate text, often in a specific language or dialect, sometimes with speaker labelling. Precision and native or near-native fluency matter more than speed.

Translation and localisation. You translate or adapt content between languages, or check machine translations for accuracy and natural phrasing. Professional-level fluency in both languages is the qualification.

Voice and audio recording. You record speech to a brief, often for voice cloning or audio model training. Some roles want studio-grade experience; others want a specific accent or language.

Software build and agent work. You write, review, or evaluate code so a model learns to build software. This one does need engineering skill, unlike the others on this list.
