Have you ever found yourself tempted to roast ChatGPT or Gemini after asking a question? Are you so sick of seeing the same “not x, not y, but z” format in responses over and over again that your eyelids have started twitching when you see it?
Well, here’s your chance to exercise your inner mean girl with a learning language model. You would get paid for it, too – if you get hired.
“Get paid to bully AI,” offers the site Memvid in a currently open job listing cited by Business Insider. Per the listing, Memvid is paying one person $100 per hour for one eight-hour day of remote work (a total of $800) being a “Professional AI Bully.”
Memvid is described on its website as a “a self-improving memory layer for AI applications that enables persistent context, faster retrieval and smarter responses, all in a single file.” According to the site, it was developed by Chief technology Officer Saleban Olow and Chief Executive Offcier Mohamed Mohamed as part of their project to build an AI agent to help screen healthcare industry staffing applications.
“You’ll spend a full 8-hour day interacting with leading AI chatbots – and your only job is to be brutally honest about how frustrating they are,” Memvid explained in its listing. “Ask them to remember things. Watch them forget. Ask again. Document the chaos. Get mad about it. Get paid for it.”
Qualifications leave the field pretty open. All Memevid asks is that applicants have an “extensive personal history of being let down by technology” as well as the patience to ask the same question four times, comfort being on camera or screen-recorded and a strong opinion about why AI should be better. Applicants don’t even need prior AI bullying experience!
After the day of bullying, any content produced during the session may be used for marketing and press materials, Memvid said. Its site said Olow and Mohamed also developed Kora, described as “what happens when that memory becomes intelligence,” and a type of AI that allows you to “stop re-explaining yourself and start getting accurate, cited answers that improve over time.”
Applicants will also be asked to try Kora, the job listing said.
This offer comes as use of AI is expanding and as concerns about its impact on the job and market and other aspects of society grow. For example, NBC News poll results released this week found that “a majority of registered voters, 57%, said they believe the risks of AI outweigh its benefits.”
