Contribute to Human-Centered AI Research
Turing is inviting musicians to participate in a unique research initiative. As part of the Common Lives Project, you and a fellow musician will wear GoPros during your collaborative practice or recording sessions. Your footage will power future AI models that understand complex, real-world activities.
* Role Overview: Wear a head-mounted camera to capture daily activities for 5 separate days within a 2-week window.
Responsibilities:
* Record a minimum of 7 hours per day, with flexibility to take breaks and pause the camera for privacy.
* At the end of each day, spend around 2 hours to upload your footage to a secure platform, review short clips, and choose to delete, anonymize, or consent to each video segment.
Household Requirements:
* No children (under 18) present or visiting during the recording period.
* All adults in the space must be fluent English speakers and consent to being recorded.
* Must live in a private, self-contained apartment, building, or indoor work environment.
* All household members must agree to appear in the footage.
Participant Requirements:
* Must work indoors in non-customer-facing roles (e.g., not retail or child care).
* Participants who share the same workplace or household should both have a camera mounted during the activity.
* Preferably engaged in manual or creative work (e.g., chef, baker, artist, carpenter, musician, electrician, mechanic).
* Able to use a computer for basic tasks such as reviewing and uploading video clips.
Benefits:
* Play a vital role in shaping the future of human-centered AI research.
* Short-term, flexible engagement with minimal disruption to your routine.
* All equipment provided by Turing.
* Be part of an innovative global data collection initiative.
Application Process:
* Shortlisted candidates will be contacted for a brief screening.
* Once accepted, all necessary equipment will be shipped and onboarding instructions provided.
* Participants will receive training on how to record, upload, and review their footage securely.
