Elon Musk's artificial intelligence (AI) company, xAI, is on the lookout for native Hindi and Bengali speakers.

The aim is to train its Grok AI chatbot and make it sound more like a local.

Ayush Jaiswal, a top executive at xAI announced this development on social media platform X.

He said that they are looking for native language speakers to mentor Grok in six languages: Russian, Arabic, Mandarin, Indonesian, as well as Hindi and Bengali.


No prior AI training experience required
Open opportunity


Jaiswal also clarified that applicants don't need prior experience in AI training to apply for this role.

He said not having such knowledge could even help them learn new technology.

"If you know nothing about training the models, this is one of the most incredible ways to learn about AI," he wrote on X.

"At the same time, help Grok sound like your neighbor."
