What is an AI Trainer?
An AI trainer is a person who helps teach and improve Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems so they perform tasks accurately and fairly. Think of it like being a teacher for a computer model that is learning how to understand language, recognize images, or make decisions. You’ll use your knowledge and life experience to evaluate AI responses, correct them and ultimately help “teach” it to be more accurate.
