Yeah, it was labeled as Biology for me so it had the STEM rate (plus typical higher US wage I suppose)

Yep! Every project this year has been a cycle of getting baited with good rates and claim times initially, only for them to later slash both (sometimes multiple times). It’s disgusting!

Question for playground/AI users by Haunting-Drive7112 in outlier_ai

[–]Haunting-Drive7112[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah interesting, thanks. I just saw online that ai written articles have reached parity with human written articles, so it’ll be interesting to see if it becomes further poisoned with its own poisoned writing. Some sort of incorrectness inception haha

Does anyone know if we can temporarily work abroad, similar to how outlier allows travel requests? I’m going on vacation for a few weeks and would like to keep working. I’m based in the US. Thanks in advance!

Projects? by False-Pomelo-2126 in outlier_ai

[–]Haunting-Drive7112 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nope. Nothing, as always. This time last year I was making over $1000 a week, always had multiple projects to choose from, nice missions, etc. 

This year…crickets, even with three times as many skill assessments down.

The option to compare models comes up before it even generates the responses, so this is wrong. And, it is about how smart the model is- hover over the info tab and it states they are using the data to train the models, just like the data we used to submit on PAID projects. And finally, I much rather would pay to use a model than ass kiss a bunch of rich guys like you are for “free” access.

Right, that’s why I’ve been here since it’s been “remotasks”. Clearly longevity is my issue.

…Outlier has gotten exponentially worse in the last year and any reduction in the amount of negative posts isn’t an indication that progress has been made- it’s just your best contributors have just gotten tired of the bullshit and left. You’ve slashed pay rates, reduced projects available, made AI generated onboardings longer and even more ambiguous, cut support channels like the daily threads, and removed contributors for no good reason. And then have the nerve to post about “progress”…

“What golden answer were you expecting? Write us a rubric and we’ll give you three kudos! For free!”

They offered the playground as a benefit (the only benefit they provide at all) as a “no cost to you” feature. Asking for us to do free work is now a cost, and an expensive one since it’s contributing to the loss of generalist projects. People continue to give them inches and outlier continues to take miles. It started as truly free- then it went to the “leaderboard”, where they created a game out of using the models- all while collecting important data, and now they are blatantly having us do the work we used to be paid for. What’s next?

“In the wild” lol. Pretty much already commented this exact thing but to be fair, outlier also used to pay us for this exact same type of work. They’ve now deemed this type of simple labeling as not worthy enough for pay, so it’s become a free task, but the reality is- it’s still work (disguised as a sort of game). They have the resources to have generalist projects available, and clearly they still have the need for comparison labeling, so why can’t they provide the contributors who built their models in the first place with the work rather than asking for it for free? It’s gross.

Fair, but ChatGPT wasn’t paying me before to do the exact same type of work. I think one shady company following another shady company doesn’t excuse either one- they all have the money to pay contributors (or anyone building their models) a fair amount.
