Worldwide
🎙️ Korean Native Speakers Needed — Conversational Audio Recording Task (2 Hours 20 Minutes Total) ⸻ ABOUT THE PROJECT We are a team that collaborates with companies focused on the training and development of neural networks, major automotive companies such as BYD Co., Ltd., Yangwang Auto, and Shenzhen Denza New Energy Co., Ltd., as well as Apple Siri, AI voice assistants, speech-to-text, and voice recognition companies. We are currently collecting conversational voice samples to build a database for training an ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems) platform with integrated voice control, along with advanced conversational AI and speech recognition systems. For this project, we are looking for native Korean speakers to record natural conversations. ⸻ WHAT YOU WILL DO * Record a natural spoken conversation with a partner (you must find your own partner). * Both you and your partner must be native Korean speakers — Korean must be the first language of both participants. * The recording is completed remotely using an app that we provide. Both participants may be located in different cities or even different countries. * We will provide login credentials and installation instructions for both participants. * Total recording time: 2 hours 20 minutes * Each topic: 20 minutes * Number of topics: 7 topics * Topic selection: Choose any 60% from the “Areas of Expertise” section and 40% from the “Casual Topics” section. The topic list will be provided after hiring. ⸻ IS IT SAFE? Yes. Participation in this project is completely safe. Your voice recordings will not be used for commercial products, advertisements, or voiceover purposes. The recordings are collected solely for AI training, speech recognition, and voice interaction research. ⸻ STRICT RECORDING REQUIREMENTS Please read the following rules carefully. Failure to follow these requirements may result in your recordings being rejected, requiring you to complete the task again. 1. Start each new topic with the phrase “magic data sound recording.” Before each new discussion topic, one participant must clearly say “magic data sound recording,” and then begin the conversation. 2. Both participants must be native Korean speakers. Korean must be the first language of both speakers. No exceptions. 3. Record in a quiet indoor environment. Close all doors and windows before starting. Background noise may result in rejection. 4. Do not use headphones or earphones. Use only your phone’s built-in microphone. 5. Do not use speakerphone. Hold the phone in a normal calling position throughout the recording. 6. Do not record while the phone is charging. Charging may introduce electrical interference into the recording. 7. Ensure sufficient storage space. Verify that your phone has enough available storage before beginning. 8. Keep the conversation natural. Do not read from a script. Speak spontaneously as you would in a normal conversation. 9. Maintain a balanced dialogue. Both participants should contribute equally, taking turns naturally throughout the discussion. 10. Speak clearly and at an appropriate volume. Pronounce words clearly and avoid speaking too softly. 11. Minimize filler words. Avoid excessive use of expressions such as “um,” “uh,” or unnecessary pauses. 12. Upload all recordings and confirm submission after completing the task. ⸻ REQUIREMENTS FOR APPLICANTS * Native Korean speaker (Korean must be your first language) * Able to find a partner who is also a native Korean speaker * Smartphone with a working microphone and sufficient storage * Quiet indoor recording environment * Reliable internet connection for uploading recordings * Ability to carefully follow all project instructions * No prior recording experience required ⸻ HOW TO APPLY Please include the following information in your application: Confirm that Korean is your first (native) language.
