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.
