Hello. I have been working in the AI field for 18 months as an AI trainer. I am a freelance worker for a data company, reviewing model responses, and working to improve the model's ability, helpfulness, and output. Before this, I worked as a freelance marketer and content writer. I moved into freelance work while my children were young and I became a single mother. Before I became a freelancer, I worked as a project manager at a digital content provider. As my children grow and my time opens up, I would like to return to employment, using my skills as a writer, communicator, and project manager to help orgs that are shaping the future of AI, in safety and governance. My primary motivation is user benefit, and I believe my unique blend of marketing skills, knowledge of model output, and growing interest in AI safety make me a good fit for a coordinator or marketing role within AI safety and governance. My technical AI knowledge is limited, as I work on the user end, and I have a BA in English Literature. What advice do you have for me, as I would like to expand my understanding of AI safety and return to work in a part-time, most likely entry-level role?
Thank you so much for posting this! I had a similar experience with my daughter last night. Stalling bedtime, I was getting frustrated, she was constantly asking to go to the toilet, which I eventually decided was just a tactic (because nothing was happening when she went). Turns out she did have a poorly tummy during the night...and I felt a little shameful. As my frustration built up, I lost sight of what else could be going on (she had her flu vaccine a couple of days ago). Fast forward to this morning where I apologised and smothered her in cuddles. Sometimes we need to breathe, resolve to go with the flow, and see the bigger picture.

Many thanks for reading my question!
