Job description

About the Role:

Do you have a background in Psychology? At TELUS Digital, we are looking for freelancers to help make the internet a safer place. You don't need to be a tech expert or a computer scientist. Your job is to use your understanding of human behavior and mental health to check if AI-generated content is safe, helpful, and responsible. You are the "Human Compass" that helps the AI understand people better.

What You'll Do (Simple Tasks):

• Safety Reviews: Review content that has been flagged as potentially risky or harmful and decide if it follows safety rules.
• Behavior Analysis: Look at how an AI interacts with users and identify if it is showing any biased or unfair behavior.
• Risk Reporting: Identify "gray areas" where an AI might give bad advice and suggest better, safer ways for it to respond.
• Mental Health Awareness: Use your degree to ensure the AI recognizes sensitive topics and handles them with care.

Mandatory Qualifications:

• Education: A minimum of a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, Counseling, or a related field.
• Native Language: Native-level proficiency in your primary language. You need to understand the cultural and emotional "vibe" of how people talk in your country.
• English Proficiency: Basic (B1) English so you can read our project guides and safety rules.
• Empathy & Logic: You are good at understanding how people feel and spotting risks that others might miss.

Assessment:

In order to be hired into our community, you'll go through a subject-specific qualification exam that will determine your suitability for the position and complete ID verification.

Payment:

Currently, pay rates for experts range from $20 - $50 USD per hour. Our Payment terms are defined for each project.

Why Join the TELUS Digital AI Community:

• Community Connection: Work remotely as part of a 1M+ diverse global AI Community of contributors and experts.
• Impactful Expertise: Use your native language and academic degree to shape real-world AI systems and products used by millions every day.
• Hands-on Innovation: Gain experience in the latest AI research, evaluation, and fine-tuning methodologies.
• Global Collaboration: Collaborate with a network of specialists across 20+ domains and 500+ languages and dialects.
• Flexible Engagement: Manage your own schedule while making a meaningful impact on the future of technology.
