![Hi Tobias,
I recently came across your profile and thought your humanities background could be a great fit for an opportunity we’re hiring for at SpaceXAI [https://x.ai/].
We’re currently looking for an AI Tutor – Humanities Specialist to help train and improve Grok. You’ll evaluate model outputs across areas like linguistics, history, classical studies, literature, poetry, philosophy, ethics, and the visual or performing arts, while identifying factual errors, flawed reasoning, anachronisms, weak sourcing, and claims that go beyond the available evidence. You’ll also create high-quality reference answers and training data grounded in primary sources, clearly distinguishing evidence from interpretation and speculation.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:eqgbahkj5art5neligzjeqs7/bafkreigctd4fkcz3xuh56hrfyxk4nkjoofdaalr74ep7wrkjw6556ihaou)
![Who, Me? was a top secret, sulfurous, non-lethal chemical weapon developed by MIT-graduate Ernest Crocker for the U.S. Office of Strategic Services during World War II.[1][2] Who, Me? smelled strongly of fecal matter, and was issued in pocket atomizers intended to be unobtrusively sprayed on a German officer to humiliate him and, by extension, demoralize the occupying German forces.[3]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreig5a4qwpgntp5yvblqc35c35h7gu3eq25yb4shbv57dbuvnxxfuwq)
![Who, Me? had a high concentration of extremely volatile sulfur compounds that were very difficult to control: more often than not, the person who did the spraying also ended up smelling as bad as the one targeted.[4] After two weeks, it was concluded that Who, Me? was a failure.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreibih3uoda66lpsf4t3oksxyr4e5ppkiu7n6zxp7pzdlfqbp6grehm)
