  • Detect and flag common AI image artifacts such as warped hands, smudged surfaces, inconsistent shadows, broken patterns, or misshapen text.
  • Compose clear, accurate, and concise written descriptions for each identified issue, pinpointing exact locations within the images.
  • Consistently apply a high standard of quality assurance by following detailed project guidelines and prioritizing accuracy over speed.
  • Maintain thorough, constructive feedback throughout your evaluations, ensuring actionable insights for model improvement.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills in English, producing error-free feedback and detailed image notes.
  • Keen visual acuity with a proven ability to detect even subtle differences between similar images.
  • Background in photography, digital imaging, graphic design, photo editing, or a closely related discipline, with the precise vocabulary to describe technical visual issues.
