In today’s AI landscape, the need for human contribution in training and refining models has never been greater.
Whether it’s annotating images for computer vision, reviewing content for quality and safety, or performing other specialized, high-volume tasks, these projects require precision and consistency.
This guide explains how a task-based W-2 employment approach can offer a stronger, more reliable alternative to relying solely on 1099 contractors — particularly for the complex, large-scale demands of modern AI initiatives.
