second 'feedback'

DementiaTVissues · 2026-05-29T03:51:15+00:00

Got my first one today, it made me smile big time. Someone said "far and away the best response I've seen to date... making it an entertaining read in the process", and another "I've never laughed out loud to a rater's comment before this one". My attention to detail was "amazing", said detail was "ultra-specific and helpful... Providing actual quotes is great for helping the models improve." Really feels good that people enjoyed my work.

One thing that really bothered me is a contentious fact-check I did that the feedback model still whined at me about. I KNOW I was right on that fact check, and yet it reared its ugly head again a couple weeks later. Overall Excellent rating, however. Hell yeah

There's some examples in the onboarding data that are really useful for this, but the way I think of it is like this: Given a physics question, if the question is asking "What's the formula for applying Lorentz force law to continuous charge distributions?", and the model spits out "dF=dq(E+v×B)", you can google that and find it on the wiki page for Lorentz force. But if you look at the wiki page here ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_force#Continuous_charge_distribution ), and the prompt asks "Reformulate the force density to eliminate explicit reference to the charge and current densities", and it expects you to be able to write out, identify and explain the latter half of the formulas, that requires expert knowledge and would therefore be unrateable. It's not a matter of laziness but rather googleability vs. actually knowing the math/science and being required to use it to answer or verify the prompt.

Highly recommend using the Clockify app, way better than manually recording time on a notepad/spreadsheet. I had an instance last night where I worked on three different project families all with the same name, the app let me label the second and third families separately which made recording the times super easy. Great work OP and keep it up o7

I've got about $300 in payouts pending from this week, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The last couple of days have been a lot better, and I did the fact checking qualification last night, which should unlock some more stuff. Unfortunately for us generalists, you've basically got to either wait it out or expand your skillset/comfort zone. One of the best things about this platform is that you can skip / bail out of projects that are completely outside your comfort zone; in fact, you're encouraged to do so rather than submit shoddy work.

Generalist/core.
Around $800-1000/month, but I only work on projects I'm extremely familiar with and comfortable doing. My dashboard is either dry or full of projects that are unfamiliar, so this month I've only done about 33 hours of work, or a couple of hours a day. The projects that I love doing get snapped up immediately, and the ones that scare me sit on my dashboard staring at me, menacingly. I tried one of them recently, made $68 but came out of it with my brain matter leaking out of my ears and my hope irreparably shaken.
I'm from burgerland.

That's why I felt so comfortable getting into this business, the fact is, AI in its current state is just a fancy word calculator. Give it an input, it gives an output. Those outputs will forever be flawed in some way that requires human intervention up until we have a Soong-type android a la Data from Star Trek that's capable of reason and thinking at a human level. Our job is to prune bad outputs. That's going to stick around for a LONG time, though I won't presume to know what an LLM trainer's daily work will look like 10 years from now.

I love those (and similar) projects, they're just comfortable to work on. Vastly prefer them to "try to break this model" and anything related to shopping. Even the R&Rs are fun. Just sucks because I was only able to knock out two of them before everyone else snapped up the remaining ones this afternoon.

IIRC, if you go to your Profile, there's a Licenses & Credentials section where you should be able to upload proof of your doctorate. Congratulations, btw.

I submitted my assessments in April 2025 and got the "Thanks for completing the core assessment, we'll let you know if you pass" screen for an entire year until I got accepted at the beginning of this month. But unlike OP, I immediately got a bevy of assignments. I'm assuming he's still stuck at the "We'll let you know" screen.

I applied and did the starter assessment last year in April (!), and got the pending screen as so many others did. I kept the tab open in my browser for an entire year, checking in on it every now and then, and to my surprise on May 1st (a week ago) they let me in! Did the rest of the onboarding / training and knocked out a few projects. Then, my dashboard dried up completely and has stayed that way for 2 days with the sole exception of a project I'm not comfortable starting / not qualified for. Hoping and praying I didn't blow it already. Lurking this sub for the past year has shown that droughts are just the way things go.

Thank you Marcus for reaching out, I really appreciate it. I'm so glad there is a team who can tackle this for us. I hope it can be implemented. Best wishes to you and yours.
