The work
You will help evaluate whether AI-generated responses handle military activities, surveillance, privacy, and lawful conduct with sound legal reasoning. The work includes assessing legal rigor, appropriate caution, and how clearly a response explains uncertainty and legal limits.
You will also create and organize difficult examples, maintain a legal taxonomy, and record the authorities behind your conclusions.
- Author and categorize boundary cases involving distinction, proportionality, and precautions in attack.
- Assess ambiguous military legal scenarios and document the reasoning and supporting authorities for each conclusion.
- Review AI responses for legal depth, sound reasoning, appropriate caution, and treatment of uncertainty.
- Identify both excessive caution and insufficient rigor in answers to complex military legal questions.
- Validate and refine a legal taxonomy so it remains reliable under detailed review.
- Maintain clear records of edge cases and the legal authorities supporting your conclusions.
