Google’s AI models, including the Gemini chatbot, rely on a largely invisible workforce of contracted AI raters to moderate and correct AI outputs. These workers, known as ‘generalist raters’ and ‘super raters’, are employed through contractors like GlobalLogic to ensure AI responses are safe and appropriate.
