The AI Tutor will use the company's proprietary software to provide labels, annotations, and inputs on projects involving game mechanics, narratives, and design elements. The role includes delivering high-quality curated data that improves the AI’s understanding of gaming principles. Collaboration with technical staff is required to develop tasks and improve annotation tools, ensuring efficient workflows and refining AI-generated video game content.
