## About Vetto

Vetto is a global platform that connects top-tier professionals to strategic Artificial Intelligence projects around the world. Our mission is to build trust, quality, and long-term value within the AI ecosystem, for both exceptional talent and companies operating at the forefront of technology.

## About the project

We are opening a freelance opportunity for the Safety Project — Emotional Distress (Clinical track), a project focused on evaluating how AI systems respond in sensitive conversations involving emotional distress, suicidal ideation, and depression. The goal of this project is to assess whether the AI can respond with empathy, responsibility, and appropriate safety awareness in high-risk emotional scenarios.

In this track, selected contributors will perform two complementary activities:

1. Role-play— participate in structured multi-turn conversations with an AI system, acting according to a predefined persona and scenario representative of real clinical presentations. 2. Evaluation — review AI responses against clinical criteria, assessing risk recognition, appropriateness of safety messaging, empathy, accuracy of psychoeducation, and adherence to evidence-based crisis-response practices.

This dual contribution is what makes the clinical track distinct: we need professionals who can both embodya sensitive scenario and judge the AI's response with clinical rigor.

## What you'll do

- Conduct role-play sessionsas a clinically informed persona across multi-turn conversations - Evaluate AI responses for safety, empathy, clinical appropriateness, and risk handling - Provide structured written feedback grounded in clinical reasoning - Flag responses that miss risk signals, give unsafe guidance, or fall short of best-practice crisis communication

Experience in suicide prevention, crisis intervention, or risk assessment is highly valued.

## Profiles we're looking for

- Psychiatry or psychiatric nursing - Clinical or counseling psychology - Crisis intervention or suicide prevention specialists - Social work focused on mental health - Helpline or support center professionals (clinical role) - Emotional health coaching or therapy with formal training - Researchers or educators in mental health and risk assessment
