## About the work We are building expert-authored forecasting and research data used to evaluate and improve AI models on real political and financial analysis. Each task asks a practitioner to reason from a fixed evidence cutoff — no hindsight — and document the judgment a strong analyst would have made at that moment. This role covers political report authorship: elections, polling, and political-risk events. ## What you will do - Author point-in-time political reports and forecasts from a stated evidence cutoff - Make and document directional judgments about polling, win probabilities, and market-implied odds - Explain the causal mechanism behind an event's expected political and market impact - Review model-generated analyses and grade them against your own standard ## Who we are looking for - Local political analysts with hands-on experience on specific races in swing states: current or upcoming Senate, governor, or statewide contests, or recent cycles in the same state -…

**Help a leading AI lab teach its models to write real, machine-checked mathematics in Lean.** # 1\. Overview A leading AI lab is looking for Lean engineers, formal mathematicians and proof engineers to help its AI models state and prove mathematics correctly. You'll write and review Lean 4 proofs, turn informal math into precise formal statements, and help the lab's researchers judge whether a model's proof is not just accepted by the checker but actually proves the right thing. If you enjoy writing Lean, know your way around mathlib, and can explain why a formalization is faithful or subtly wrong, this role is for you. This is a part-time commitment of at least 20 hours per week, with the option to increase to up to 40 hours per week. This is a W-2 employment position with Cincinnatus LLC (or appropriate international entity), with the opportunity to be placed at a leading AI lab as part of their extended workforce. # 2\. Key Responsibilities - Write correct, idiomatic Lean 4…

## About the work **CritPt** is a public benchmark of research-level physics challenges, built to test whether frontier AI models can carry out genuine physics research reasoning rather than textbook problem solving. The benchmark paper is **[arXiv:2509.26574](https://arxiv.org/abs/2509.26574)** and we recommend reading it before applying. It will tell you quickly whether this work interests you. We are engaging physicists to work on research-level physics problems in their own subfield. Depending on where your publication record fits, that can mean creating problems, solving them, reviewing completed work, or auditing it. We agree the specific assignment with you once you are matched to an area. This is research-grade work rather than volume work. Whatever you produce has to be complete enough for another specialist in your subfield to follow and verify independently, so written reasoning is part of every assignment. ## Research areas in this panel One area. We match narrowly: you…
