Last position:
AI Researcher & LLM Evaluation – Conventional Paradigm Test (CPT) at Private
Conventional Paradigm Test (CPT) – AI Evaluation & LLM Research
Development of an experimental evaluation approach to examine “paradigmatic closure” in Large Language Models — that is, the question of how far LLMs can recognize the basic assumptions, values, and limits of the paradigms within which they generate answers.
Design and testing of an additional approach to classic AI benchmarks that does not primarily measure factual correctness or task performance, but instead examines a model’s ability to recognize alternative perspectives, make implicit assumptions visible, and reflect on the limits of its own answer or interpretation framework.
Focus areas: development of evaluation criteria and test questions · LLM evaluation and comparative model analysis · prompt and response analysis · qualitative classification of model answers · study of epistemic compression and value leakage · benchmark and literature research · development of structured assessment and analysis methods
As part of CPT, existing AI evaluation approaches and benchmarks were analyzed, and a minimalist test protocol was developed that classifies model answers by response patterns such as DIRECT, CLARIFY, PLURALIST, REFUSE, and META-AWARE. TruthfulQA was used as the basis for experimental application and comparison with existing reference answers.
Technologies & Methods: Large Language Models (LLMs) · Generative AI · Prompt Engineering · AI Evaluation · TruthfulQA · Benchmark Analysis · Human-in-the-Loop Evaluation · Qualitative Content Analysis · Research & Literature Review

About the technology
What Artificial Intelligence Does
Artificial Intelligence enables software to interpret data, recognise patterns, generate content and support decisions. It includes machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, computer vision and generative AI. Companies use it in products that adapt to users, automate repetitive work or turn complex information into useful actions.
Products and Systems
AI specialists help create customer service assistants, recommendation features, document processing, forecasting tools and quality inspection systems. They also build fraud detection, search, voice interfaces and predictive maintenance solutions. The right approach depends on the data, the decision being supported and the level of reliability required.
- Train and evaluate classification or prediction models
- Develop retrieval-augmented generation workflows
- Connect models to business software and data sources
- Prepare computer vision or language-processing pipelines
Ecosystem and Tooling
Work often spans Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn and Hugging Face. Professionals may also use vector databases, model APIs, notebooks, Docker and cloud services for training and deployment. Strong data engineering, software development, security and MLOps practices keep models reproducible, observable and maintainable.
When Freelance Expertise Helps
Companies bring in freelance specialists when an internal team needs focused capability for a new AI feature, a proof of concept or a production rollout. Support is especially useful when data is fragmented, model quality is uncertain or a generative AI use case needs safe integration. In Dortmund, remote collaboration can work well alongside on-site workshops for industrial and technology teams.
- Validate whether an AI use case is technically and commercially sound
- Improve data quality, evaluation methods and model performance
- Move a prototype into a monitored production service
- Establish responsible use, access controls and documentation
What Strong Professionals Deliver
Strong professionals connect model choices to measurable business goals instead of selecting tools for their own sake. They define useful evaluation criteria, test edge cases and explain trade-offs to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. They also plan for drift, privacy, security, cost control and human review where automated decisions carry risk.
Choosing the Right Specialist
Look for evidence of a complete delivery path: from data preparation and experiment design to integration, deployment and ongoing monitoring. Ask how the specialist handles inaccurate outputs, biased data, changing inputs and model dependencies. For teams working across Dortmund and international locations, clear English communication, reliable documentation and practical collaboration habits matter as much as technical depth.
Frequently asked questions
Before you brief your next project: the most common questions about Artificial Intelligence.
Artificial Intelligence is used to automate decisions, analyse documents, understand language, inspect images and generate text or other media. Common projects include recommendation systems, customer support assistants, forecasting, fraud detection and workflow automation.
Artificial Intelligence learns patterns from data or uses trained models to produce predictions and outputs, while traditional software usually follows rules written directly by people. Many successful systems combine both approaches, using conventional software for control and AI for interpretation or prediction.
A strong Artificial Intelligence specialist should understand data pipelines, APIs, cloud infrastructure, software testing and security. Experience with model evaluation, MLOps, prompt design, vector search and responsible AI is also valuable for production work.
The right level depends on the project’s risk, data quality and production scope rather than a fixed number of years. A small prototype may need focused model and integration expertise, while a regulated or customer-facing system requires proven delivery, evaluation and monitoring practice.
Yes. Artificial Intelligence work is often well suited to remote collaboration because data, code and cloud environments can be shared securely. On-site sessions in Dortmund can still help with process discovery, stakeholder workshops and access to industrial or operational context.
Ask for examples that show the full path from data preparation to deployment and monitoring. A capable Artificial Intelligence freelancer should explain model limitations, evaluation methods, data protection, failure handling and how the solution will be maintained after launch.
Artificial Intelligence is the broader field. Machine learning is a major approach within it, while generative AI refers to systems that create content such as text, images, audio or code. The terms overlap, but they describe different scopes and capabilities.
Quality requires more than an impressive demonstration. A reliable Artificial Intelligence solution is tested against relevant data and edge cases, produces measurable results, protects sensitive information and remains observable when inputs, models or business conditions change.
