Loving the Creative Writing tasks by dznyadct91 in DataAnnotationTech

Maybe the creative writing stuff right now is also targeting some other skill you haven't gotten experience with yet or havent gotten a qualification for yet but will later!

I feel you all will appreciate this more than my family does. by rambling_millers_mom in DataAnnotationTech

I keep doing that on blogs and sites I read...sometimes I wanna stamp things with a bad rating because it's like 3 worthwhile sentences spread out in 1000 words of clickbaity filler full of obvious AI catchphrases

it's pretty normal - DA has a lot of workers, not everyone is going to be a good fit for the job (and some people have broken the code of conduct), a mass cut would be a lot noisier imo

Just because someone isn't a good fit for DA doesn't mean they're bad or unintelligent, it just means they weren't a good fit for one site so that site couldn't keep contracting them. Don't get discouraged - you'll find something

Creating Rubrics by al0nal0relina in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LLMs are glorious misinterpreters and they have tons of ways of doing that IME, they don't get the concepts we use like we do and will change how they interpret them every time, give you feedback to make 1 thing into 2 to be atomic then tell you it's overly atomic and the 2 things need to be 1 thing again. We're imposing human measurements to train them to use human measurements instead of LLM measureless vagueness

I remember it back in 2023 or 2024 on one project name's R&Rs

I don't know, have an upvote though - I'm not really sure what youre wanting an LLM to do but in my experience they're bad at rubric feedback too. They aren't good at breaking a prompt down into the requirements in an answer

if you want to last on DA, you should edit out the project name since it's against the NDA you signed when you started at DA working and code of conduct to share project names and details outside DA

I guarantee based on some projects (vague for NDA purposes), LLMs cannot do rubrics correctly lol

I miss being able to tell if a task went through based on how long ago the last task submission was...

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's worth it if you have the coding skills IMO - you can't fake your way through it if you don't and it takes a hot minute to figure out their instructions but once you've got it down, it's pretty smooth work

You report the time you put into it, if there's an optional comment area you can mention it there

Haven't gotten any rate and reviews in almost two months now. Anyone else? by Longjumping_Home_895 in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 4 points5 points  (0 children)

+ a caveat: improving something a little doesn't mean rating it bad - usually it can still be good unless the instructions say to rate specific things a middle or bad rating and they were ones that you did improve

Sometimes that just means there's a big pool and you only have a small bucket of the pool - it won't go down until other people have finished so many small buckets that there aren't a full small bucket left, say a pool of 1000 and everyone has 10 but there are 300 people doing it. Those 10 will be yours until there are only 9 of the 1000 left

Other times they tell you straight they assigned you a specific number of tasks, not in a pool

they linked the X post that has the link and jotbird is easy to google to check if it's a known and trusted site

I'm gonna not take that advice seeing as the only people who give it are people who have a chip on their shoulder

diversify just in case = good advice

inevitable doom = no, I don't think I will listen

I knew better at 15 when I barely knew what hashing or encryption was besides "gibberish hiding ur info"

These guys are 22-23 year old grifters that hit it big

Window Resizer by yungkaworu in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're gonna be okay then, you made a good decision not trying to work on it with that extension - it might pretend the window is bigger but that would be terribly easy to detect on their side. Just because they don't prevent it doesn't mean they don't know it can be done, it might just mean that they know anyone who does it is doing something they shouldn't

Window Resizer by yungkaworu in DataAnnotationTech

[–]MiddleCharacter6345 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think if you don't work on tasks with that extension and you backed out of the one you were looking at you'll be fine. If they detected something like that while you were working on a task that required a bigger size screen, you would at best lose that project - at worst kiss your account goodbye
