• Choose which of two AI responses is stronger.
• Write short, structured notes explaining your reasoning on rigor, completeness and clarity.

What you need to apply

• Board certification in ophthalmology from an ABMS member board or the AOA.
• An MD or DO degree from an accredited medical school, with residency completed and fellowship if your specialty requires it.
• An active, unrestricted US medical license.
• At least 1 year of independent practice after training, currently seeing patients in the US; 3+ years of post-training experience is strongly preferred.
• Clear written communication and close attention to detail.

Who can apply

The facts say the role is open worldwide, with no country restriction stated, but the posting also asks for an active, unrestricted US medical license and current practice in the US, so check that you meet those points before applying.
