Toloka

[4][7] In the generative AI domain, Toloka provides services such as model fine tuning, reinforcement learning from human feedback, evaluation, adhoc datasets, which require large volumes of highly skilled experts annotation.

For the fine-tuning of large language models (LLMs), experts are required to generate and provide context-based prompts that can be single-turn or multi-turn, serving various domains and purposes.

[5] Toloka mainly works with domain experts, such as physicists, scientists, lawyers, and software engineers, to develop specialized data for models targeting niche tasks.

Such datasets are addressed to researchers in different directions like linguistics, computer vision, testing of result aggregation models, and chatbot training.
