Recently, many students read our article and came to consult the specific situation of Xiao A's artificial intelligence trainer. What exactly does an artificial intelligence trainer train? Why do you need an AI trainer? Why does the country vigorously develop the talent training of artificial intelligence trainers?

Below, Little A will take you step by step to uncover the mystery of this new profession.
What does an artificial intelligence trainer train
Speaking of artificial intelligence, what can you think of? Model training, deep learning... Yes, artificial intelligence trainers can be simply regarded as personnel who improve the efficiency of model training. Regarding the work content and role of artificial intelligence trainers, the Russian Satellite News Agency interviewed Xu Canhao, an associate professor at the School of Computer Science and Technology of Soochow University.
Xu Canhao said: "For example, the artificial intelligence used for autonomous driving needs to recognize traffic signs on the road. A certain traffic sign is an inverted triangle, which means to give way. However, the sign of an inverted triangle will vary on different images. Sometimes there will be some color difference in color or contrast, or some angle difference. At this time, we need thousands or even tens of thousands of photos, and the artificial intelligence trainer will tell the artificial intelligence, although the inverted triangle on these photos Signs come in different colors, angles, brightness, contrast, but they all mean give way."
The work of artificial intelligence trainers is to make the algorithm designed by artificial intelligence engineers more accurate and closer to people's conception and needs of this artificial intelligence through training.
Why You Need an AI Trainer
In reality, model training requires a large amount of data, and unclassified user raw data cannot be used for model training.
This requires massive data labeling. Before the emergence of the profession of artificial intelligence trainer, the work of data labeling was often handed over to the data labeling personnel by the AI product manager, but in the actual operation process, the labeling personnel's understanding of the data There is a big difference between the labeling quality and the labeling quality, and the overall labeling work efficiency and effect are not ideal. At the same time, the large amount of data accumulated by AI companies in their subdivision fields will no longer generate more value after being used once, and the utilization rate is low, which brings problems such as the inability to accumulate and reuse data.
Hardest Classification Ever: Food or Non-Food?
In order to solve the two problems, "artificial intelligence trainers" came into being. They have a certain understanding of the data and knowledge involved. After "cleaning" the data and obtaining structured core knowledge and key data, they can specify data labeling Rules, "feed" data to artificial intelligence and "guidance" it, so that artificial intelligence can better serve human beings.
The profession of artificial intelligence trainer came into being. According to the National Occupational Skills Standard, AI trainers are defined as “personnel who use intelligent training software to perform database management, algorithm parameter setting, human-computer interaction design, performance test tracking, and other auxiliary operations during the actual use of artificial intelligence products. Artificial intelligence trainers include data labelers① and AI algorithm testers②.
From the perspective of the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology and the characteristics of model training, the emergence of the profession of artificial intelligence trainers can be said to be a natural process. They are an important part of improving the efficiency of model training.
Talent training of artificial intelligence trainers
As one of the 16 new occupations jointly released to the society by the Bureau of Human Resources and Social Security, the State Administration of Market Regulation, and the National Bureau of Statistics, artificial intelligence trainers have a broad market demand.
artificial intelligence trainer salary
In the "2021 Beijing Human Resources Market Salary Big Data Report" issued by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Human Resources and Social Security, artificial intelligence trainers are on the list.
Monthly Salary Distribution of Artificial Intelligence Trainers and Data Annotators
Data description: Search for positions "artificial intelligence trainer" and "data labeler" on the Zhaopin recruitment website, for Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Tianjin, Wuhan, Xi'an, Chengdu, Dalian, Changchun, Shenyang, Nanjing, Jinan, Qingdao, 24 cities including Hangzhou, Suzhou, Wuxi, Ningbo, Chongqing, Zhengzhou, Changsha, Fuzhou, and Xiamen released job statistics; salary negotiable is not included; the salary amount in the recruitment information is mostly presented in the form of intervals; the statistical time is 2021/12/03
Data source: According to the public statistics of Zhaopin.com
It is not difficult to see that nearly 60% of the positions of artificial intelligence trainers have a monthly salary range of 6,000 to 10,000 yuan, and those with a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan also exceed 20% of the total sample. Looking at the branch of data labelers, the income of 4,000 to 8,000 yuan accounts for a large proportion, and about 15% of the positions offer a monthly salary of less than 5,000 yuan.
The need for training certification is highlighted
The "Standards" issued by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security clarified that artificial intelligence trainers are divided into five levels. From the perspective of job content and skill requirements, as the difficulty of using data tools deepens, the norms and standards of data processing, data Handling quality and helping smart products to land will face higher requirements .
Netizens started a heated discussion about the release of the vocational skills standard. The analysis found that, in addition to expressing opinions on the current employment environment of artificial intelligence trainers, netizens extended the topic of vocational skills to general jobs, "liberal arts careers" and other jobs in Internet companies. The sense of crisis of technical unemployment became the core of this part of the comments Emotional undertones. At the same time, some netizens are also hotly discussing whether the corresponding professional qualifications are good and how to take the test .

written in the last words
From the perspective of employment, artificial intelligence trainers have the advantages of low threshold of training courses, convenient and easy to learn, suitable for vocational colleges and applied undergraduate students, and also suitable for employee training of enterprises, and also suitable for flexible employment groups who want to do side jobs and part-time jobs need.
