Freelancer Overview

Since November 2024 I have been working on freelance basis on an AI training project which aims to train bots in Indian English. The project involves rating and evaluating bot responses to written and audio prompts on various criteria, as well as reviewing the ratings of other workers. India is the second-largest English-speaking nation, with close to 130 million people speaking the language with nuances quite specific to this country. Training AI in this peculiar form of the language is both challenging and fun.

Project hours completed: ~165 Scope: - Training AI bots in Indian English by providing locale-specific text, audio and image prompts; evaluating and rating bot responses on various criteria such as truthfulness, harmlessness, instruction following, etc. - Generating model failures and providing golden responses - Reviewing and rating the work of other linguists The main requirement across all tasks was to use English as written or spoken in India. This makes for a tremendous learning experience for both the bots as well as the humans training them, as Indian English IMHO is not a single language but a spectrum, with highly nuanced characteristics from region to region.
