How Are AI Startups Handling Human Evaluation Today?
Hi everyone. I'm building a company focused on providing human data for AI training, and I'd like to connect with people who work in this field. We're putting together a team of annotators to create datasets for response comparison, preference ranking, RLHF, SFT, and model evaluation. The goal isn't to produce data at the highest possible volume, but to deliver consistent, well-reviewed evaluations, because at the end of the day, that's what really impacts a model's quality. We're still in the early stages, and I'd like to better understand how companies training LLMs or AI agents are handling this today. Do you do everything in-house? Do you outsource it? Is it difficult to find people who can provide truly consistent evaluations? If you work in this field, or know someone who might need this kind of service, I'd really appreciate the opportunity to talk. I'm also open to suggestions on where to find companies looking for this type of operation. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
