It’s Friday afternoon. I had just sat down to watch some TV, thinking that I was done writing articles for the week, when I came across a post for an online job from Remotasks: Getting paid to train AI chatbots.

In addition to being a cool way to make money online, this opportunity reminded me of one of my early work from home jobs for Clickworker. When AI was just getting started a decade ago, I got to do some training assignments for the Clickworker UHRS project.

I loved the work and thought that someone reading this might find it a cool gig as well. So, here are the details about how to earn up to $600 a week by training AI chatbots.

What is Remotasks?

Similar to Clickworker, Remotasks is a large crowdsouring site where remote workers from all over the world complete large-scale projects in bite-sized pieces. Many of these work from home assignments involve working with technology. For example, training AI-powered chatbots and smart tech devices.

Basically, Remotasks helps technology companies make their products and services better for users by recruiting online workers (like you) to test and train algorithms.

Getting paid to train AI chatbots

According to the posting from Remotasks, freelancers can earn $600 a week from this gig. The projects goal is to help make AI models better writers by rating their responses to various requests.

The post says that onboarding takes less than an hour — and you can start earning money online almost immediately. Once you do start working, these short writing and evaluation assignments pay the equivalent of $15 to $20 an hour. The job sounds simple enough. You write a request to a chatbot, and then evaluate its response to your request.

Furthermore, as a freelancer, you can have a flexible schedule, working any time (day or night) that’s convenient for you. Plus, workers are paid weekly.

You can sign up as a Remotasks freelancer via Facebook or Google.

Other Remotasks work from home jobs

In addition to the above-mentioned AI-training project, Remotasks also has other projects and opportunities to make money online. In fact, some workers even find data entry gigs. But most projects are related to technology.

Depending on the assignment, the pay range can vary widely. But if you are looking for a legit way to earn money online, Remotasks seems to offer quite a bit of work.
