Elon Musk’s xAI Is Hiring Native Hindi & Bengali Speakers To Mentor Grok AI; Here’s How To Apply

Hindi and Bengali have traditionally been the choice of languages for UI for the subcontinent, before vernaculars like Tamil, Malayalam, Punjabi, Gujarati, etc. It only makes sense; LLMs are trained to do the bidding in both the popular languages. While the local players have failed to make an impact (like their self-combusting scooters), global giants are leaving no stone unturned to expand their AIs with native linguistic capabilities.

In its bid to proliferate the desi demography, Elon Musk’s xAI is now looking for native speakers in Bengali and Hindi to train the in-house Grok AI. Training the machine with human oversight also gives much-needed proofing for AI chatbots, which has sincerely been lacking in previous iterations.

In his social media on X/Twitter, Ayush Jaiswal of xAI posted requirement for native language speakers to help mentor Grok

→ Russian

→ Arabic

→ Mandarin

→ Indonesian

→ Hindi

→ Bengali

Per the Tweet, it is not mandatory that the applicant be well-versed in training models; however, extraordinary proficiency in the language is mandatory. The goal?

Meanwhile, netizens took to the comments and lamented over the fact that Grok’s grip on their respective languages remained as shoddy as ever. One user asked,

Why not German? That’s my mother tongue; what a shame.

Another remarked, “You should apply the same approach to Hebrew. Grok performs poorly in Hebrew—it doesn’t comprehend what users write to it, and I can provide numerous examples to demonstrate this.”

Grok’s desi lingo is unmissable, though if you have been living under the rock, the Indian IT ministry was offended over its unhinged reply.
