Legal Expert

Overview

Models produce fluent legal analysis that is often subtly wrong: invented citations, misapplied precedent, and jurisdictional confusion. A plausible wrong answer in law has real consequences.

As a legal expert you'll grade AI legal reasoning against the standard of a careful practitioner and write the analysis the model should have produced.

What you’ll actually do

Draft prompts that test how models handle contracts, statutes, procedure, and case analysis.

Review AI output for invented citations, misapplied precedent, and jurisdictional errors, and rate the reasoning.

Write the correct analysis when the model falls short, with the clarity of a well-drafted memo.

Roles this fits

Common backgrounds: Corporate Counsel, Associate General Counsel.

What we look for

JD or equivalent, with practice experience or strong academic background.

Sharp legal research and writing skills across at least one practice area.

Clear written English: your explanations are the training signal.
