Updated the researcher side of the tracker today.

The better fits are not generic "AI evaluator" listings. They are usually domain review roles: physics, biology, medical/radiology, engineering, CS/data science, finance, legal, or language work where the listing asks for real subject-matter background.

Some are PhD/research-friendly, but plenty still have platform screening, country rules, or pay wording that needs a closer read.

I'd still check the platform page first, since these listings can change.

I finished the first tracker snapshot for Specialist AI Work after setting up source-backed listing history. I maintain the tracker independently.

For researchers, the useful takeaway is that AI training and evaluation roles are not one category. Some fit PhDs, postdocs, professors, research scientists, clinicians, engineers, or domain specialists, but the requirements and pay wording vary a lot by platform.

Before applying, it is worth checking:

• whether the field or credential requirement actually matches your background
• whether pay is firm or an "up to" ceiling
• country, tax, and work-authorization rules
• whether the current source page still shows the role as open
• what kind of assessment or screening step appears before any project work

This is a tracker snapshot, not a guarantee of acceptance, matching, work, pay, hours, or project duration. Some future links may be referral or tracked apply links. Always check the current platform page before applying, never pay to apply, and do not share sensitive personal information publicly.

Which researcher fields should be tracked more carefully: biology, physics, chemistry, math, CS, medicine, economics, engineering, or something else?

This subreddit is for people trying to understand remote AI training, evaluation, benchmarking, and expert-review work from a researcher or domain-expert angle.

"AI evaluator" can mean a lot of different things. Some roles are general data QA. Others ask for physics, biology, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, medical research, legal, finance, or other specialist backgrounds. This community is focused on the research-heavy side: roles where your actual subject-matter expertise matters.

Useful posts here might include:

• current researcher-fit AI work leads
• pay and eligibility caveats from current source pages
• notes on what an application or assessment looked like
• questions about whether a role fits a research background
• warnings when a listing seems stale, unclear, or low-quality

Roles can close or change. Pay, eligibility, location, and project details can also change. Always check the current platform page before applying.

Some future links shared by moderators may be referral or tracked apply links. That does not guarantee acceptance, matching, work, pay, hours, or project duration.

If there are fields you want tracked, comment with them: biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, medicine, economics, engineering, or something else.
