Maybe a long-shot: Last year I did 15 hrs a week proofreading CS and Engineering journal papers. Got around $300 - $350 per month

Didn't need a certificate in Proofreading / Editing. You have to test edit a few sample papers to get employed. My backgound: software development (but have a Science degree too from years ago).

The work is remote, flexible (you can decline papers) but *not* highly paid. Also quite hard if you get a poorly written paper. I only did it as a stop-gap.

Also: don't know if GPT has finished this market...
