Train AI as a designer or architect

You can train AI with design skills by showing robots how a trained eye lays out a space and fits parts together, then judging their attempts. Robotics companies and AI labs post the missions, and accepted trainers are paid per task. Apply free and pick Designer: every application is reviewed.

What do robots learn from designers?

Robots learn spatial judgment from designers: layout, structure and how things fit together in a real room. Teams building these robots want examples and opinions on things like:

  • Arranging objects so a space works, not just so it fits.
  • Spotting what is structurally wrong, unsafe or awkward in a layout.
  • Fitting parts and pieces together in the right order.
  • Explaining why one arrangement beats another.

Designer work is one of eleven trades and professions on Metagaming; see them all on the trades page.

What would you actually do?

Judge robot and AI layouts and say what you would change, rank arrangements, and record short spatial demos in 3D tools or sims on your PC. Missions open as labs post them. What you can take depends on your level, and Rookie is your first level once your application is accepted.

When a lab posts a mission that fits your experience, we email you. Before or after you apply, the free skill tests let you prove skills on your Trainer Card; a strong score boosts your application. Gamers can also get paid to play games.

Do I need a degree or license to apply?

No. You tell us your field when you apply. Some missions may ask for a portfolio or years of experience, and any registration a mission needs is checked before you take it. You never hand over an ID to apply.

What does it pay?

Designer missions pay per task, like every mission on Metagaming. Rookies start from $1 a task, and higher levels pay more: $5–$50 at Skilled, up to $100 at Expert and $500+ for invite-only Genius trainers. Most tasks pay $1–$5. We don't promise income.

A task pays once it passes quality review, and every mission shows its pay before you accept it. Rates are estimates and market rates can fluctuate. It's extra money, not a job. See how pay per task works.

Training AI as a designer: FAQ

Can designers and architects make money training AI?

Yes, through specific missions. Teams teaching robots to arrange and assemble things need people with a trained eye for space. Most tasks pay $1–$5. We don't promise income.

Will everyone who applies get in?

No. Every application is reviewed and not everyone is accepted. A strong score in the free packing puzzle shows spatial skill on your Trainer Card.

Do I share my own design work?

No. Missions use material the lab provides. You never upload client work.

We're looking for the most skilled people to train the future.
