Calling Telugu Internet Trends, Memes & Culture Experts for AI Training

Employment Type: Hourly Contract

Compensation: Among the highest in the industry, aligned with experience and contribution.

Who should apply

We are not looking for casual scrollers or passive social media users. We are looking for people who are deeply plugged into India's real-time internet culture and understand how trends emerge, evolve, and spread.

You should meet most of the following:

• Fluent in Telugu (reading, writing, and cultural fluency)
• Strong command of English (to explain trends and evaluate AI outputs)
• Active presence across platforms like Instagram, WhatsApp, YouTube, X (Twitter), Snapchat, Reddit, etc.
• Strong understanding of:

- Indian memes, slang, humour, irony, and sarcasm

- Viral trends and evolving formats

- Platform-specific cultures (what works on Reels vs X vs WhatsApp, etc.)

- Trending hashtags, challenges, formats, and content styles

- Regional internet cultures and online communities

- Ability to explain why something is trending, not just identify that it is trending

• Creators, influencers, meme creators, community managers, or deeply engaged digital culture participants are strongly preferred.
• No academic background required. Real-world cultural fluency matters more than formal credentials.

Your Role

• Teach AI models to understand Indian internet culture the way real people experience it
• Create culturally authentic examples of trends, memes, slang, and online behavior
• Explain the deeper context behind viral content so AI understands meaning, not just words
• Evaluate AI outputs in Telugu for tone accuracy, cultural realism, humour accuracy, and relevance
• Identify AI blind spots, such as:

- Misinterpreting humour, irony, or sarcasm

- Missing India-specific cultural nuance

- Overgeneralizing global trends without Indian context

• Collaborate with a global team shaping how AI understands modern digital culture

This is not a content-writing gig. We are looking for people who genuinely live inside Indian internet culture and can instantly tell when something feels authentic vs out of touch.
