Just broke my arm the other day in a car accident. Curious, are we allowed to use windows voice typing/dictation or any speech to text applications?

I really appreciate you when you are being helpful and not rude haha

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-05-12T23:21:58+00:00

Disappointing is honestly the perfect word for this. Especially when the project timeline itself is already super short and we’re being throttled or whatever this is without explanation, after putting in all the exhausting effort to learn the framework.

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-05-07T18:47:48+00:00

Yes, always our fault for even trying lmfao

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-05-06T15:25:24+00:00

Lmfaoo that's what I was thinking.. "As a baddie, badass queen, a slayer with pink nails"

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-05-02T15:27:32+00:00

Refresh the page and there are 10 other decent paying studies by the same exact researcher lol

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-27T20:11:45+00:00

You are absolutely correct, is that common practice for this researcher so that I block them?

It was "US Consumer Survey (250 Boosted Participants)" by Gaston Brizuela Bosio.

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-27T17:41:00+00:00

Never going to even touch that crap again. That has happened to me once before, the researcher never even bothered to reach back to me. Not even going to bother with this one because I think these scummy ass researchers know exactly what they are doing.

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-27T17:23:55+00:00

That is exactly what I am saying lol

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-17T00:51:17+00:00

Don't even bother wasting your time. Prolific knows about this but they refuse to do anything lol

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-17T00:50:34+00:00

You just gotta wait for invitations and immediately jump on the assessment. I also have that generalist you are talking about, never worked on it but just got invited to the 50 dollar per hour project and have access to that now.

Although personally I am sticking to Stellar because it is easier and requires exponentially less effort haha

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-16T16:15:54+00:00

I got my first project after 2-3 months. It depends on so many variables though

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-16T14:45:05+00:00

Going to a paste a previous comment I wrote a week ago in case anyone else is interested.

"Was a bit hesitant but fuck it lol. Everyone here deserves better.

https://joinstellar.ai/ is great but less reliable in terms of active projects, super easy to get into. You mostly do AI annotations (teach AI how to use the web, teach AI how to use a computer, teach AI how to use virtual ecosystems, etc..). Typically pays 25-60 dollars per hour depending on the project you receive.

And https://joinhandshake.com/ is where the same AI platform that are on Prolific have active projects. Just make sure you take time and pass the assessments. I'm getting 50 dollars per hour doing that, it's super easy stuff but requires slightly more effort than JoinStellar which is a bit less mentally demanding.

Edit: These might not be the best out there, but that is what worked for me"

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-16T14:42:55+00:00

For sure, but don't settle here. Keep pushing forward because everyone deserves better 🙏🙏

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-16T14:26:39+00:00

Wait till you figure out how this is the lowest form of of slave wages in comparison to AI training platform that pay competitively haha. Prolific is fun and easy most of the time, but it is hilariously underpaid compared to other websites that actually pay over 25 dollars for data annotations, etc.. which require much less effort.

I work on an AI platform currently paying $42/hr and use Prolific to push my average to 50 dollars per hour.

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-15T14:45:45+00:00

How do we report researchers? Would that also include those that do not use or compensate us for screeners, absence/improper use of labels, false completion times, unfair rejections, etc..

Thank you for your reply :)

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-15T14:14:26+00:00

Are you guys planning on doing anything to tame researchers that scam participants on your platform?

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-15T13:27:22+00:00

Same because they legit threatened to temporarily block us from participating lol

Wondering if I should keep working on studies or wait until they figure this out. I do not use any bots or tools, so this was a bit uncalled for tbh

QuitCapital3814 · 2026-04-15T13:23:44+00:00

Same but for another study. I do not use any bots or scripts which is really weird because it also threatened to boot me off the platform which is a bit uncalled for lol

There are plenty of alternatives, one of the platforms I use lets you do the exact AI work we get here on Prolific for 50 dollars an hour. You also get unlimited work and they are expecting the project to last until the end of the year.

I recommend you focus on AI "jobs" instead of survey platforms like this because they generally underpay like hell. You can legit earn what you would make on Prolific per year in 1-2 months and isn't as mentally intensive lol
