Description
Over the next year, we expect Content Editors to mostly focus on:
- Producing summaries of forecasting rationales
- Writing forecasting questions. We are interviewing subject-matter experts in a range of fields, such as artificial intelligence and political science, and asking them for events or evidence that would strongly impact their probabilities of certain future events occurring. We are looking for Content Editors who can take the general suggestions from these interviews and develop them into detailed, resolvable forecasting questions.
- Writing policy reports and summaries of our team's research (as examples, see the XPT and AI Adversarial Collaboration Project)
- Conducting expert interviews
- Responding to forecasters’ questions or clarification requests
-
Role details
- This is a part time role, with a preference for candidates who will be available 10+ hours/week.
- This role is entirely remote. Applicants can work whichever hours of the day work for them.
- We prefer applicants who can start immediately.
- Pay is commensurate with experience, starting at $20/hour.
