In this project, our goal is to make it easier to find the answers to your questions and queries. We categorize queries/questions to help train algorithms to better understand what is being asked and we rate the answers given so only the best ones make it through. By working on this project, you're directly helping to improve the way we find things online and bettering how AI and algorithms understand the questions we ask them.

For this task you will be presented with (1) a query that likely asks a question, (2) a response that attempts to answer the question in the query, (3) a short answer span extracted from this response that attempts to answer the query more succinctly, and (4) a response source, which is the webpage that the response comes from. Your job is to review the provided query, the response, and the response source and then answer a few questions about them.

This part-time work opportunity includes paid training, diverse task types, and an opportunity to improve smart assistant tasks for millions of users. Join Project Wilderness!
