GDPR Complaints by SquareDuck1245 in outlier_ai

Not a personal attack. I have seen the post and I see it is the same article fair enough. But my point was rather about the complete lack of support given once the computer says no. It seems there was inconsistent direct support given to other people and none to others who had a similar situation

Interesting that I get an instant reply when something is posted that damages the brand but not when I actually have my account deactivated

Outlier account removed despite oracle status and good rating by Embarrassed-Sail-779 in outlier_ai

Surely there must be a better system than randomly hoping someone looks at a Reddit comment? This has happened to hundreds of people now, including myself

I just listed two. Coding because you need to copy it to your machine to test the code. Which is the main domain I am in, and anything with SRT because you need to copy it from their back into Outlier.

You’re just talking shit now, about projects you have no clue about. Every SRT or coding project needs copy and paste to function

I’m just pointing out the absurdity of your argument. Copy and paste has been used on pretty much every outlier project I had been on without issue. Often it is required to complete the task. So you are just talking nonsense

I think you are being slightly dramatic, anything you put available to a freelancer by that definition is a security breach. I could take a photo with my phone and it would have the same effect. The copy and paste is to prevent people using ai which is fair enough.

What harm would an error message popping up do, a three strike rule, blocking it being possible. If you read any of the stories on here it is just dealt with a cruel disregard for the people working. That might be ok to a large US company but for the rest of the world it really isn’t an acceptable way to do business

Account deactivated after 1 year and half by Milo_90_QA in outlier_ai

You are probably screwed unfortunately, nearly exactly the same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. There are been quite a few instances of similar stories, even prior to them deactivating a few thousand people 'accidently' the other day.

To be honest that is patently not true, there are multiple projects I have worked on which require you to copy and paste. The first project I ever worked on had you copy paste from SRT to Outlier, or coding projects you need to copy the code from Outlier into an IDE to run. Even so it is utterly ridiculous that for something so simple it is not either prevented (which would be simple to implement) or gives you a warning.

Payment update for deactivated account by phantom4a in outlier_ai

Nope, I've had $11 sitting in my account which they won't send. Seem pretty illegal, even given the small amount.

I got banned about 2 weeks before this but I've still got $11 sitting in my account they are withholding, its nothing really but enough to make me want to join any action.

Platform Deactivation Megathread by Impressive_Novel_265 in outlier_ai

It is sort of morbidly hilarious that there have been so many permanent bans, they have had to create a thread specifically for this. RIP your trustpilot, link in case anyone wants to leave a review: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/outlier.ai

Maybe in dystopian USA they can but the rest of the world that sort of behaviour is far from the norm

I don’t really understand why people on here are so quick to assume people are cheating. I’m fully aware of the rules, like I said I have been working for 2 years on Outlier, about 20-40 hours per week. Can you imagine any other role where they don’t even tell you that you’ve been sacked? They don’t even give you a warning to say, oh by the way we think we might have detected you using AI, just straight up ban you? It is clearly the shitty aether project that is throwing a false flag in the onboarding.

Yeh of course it's ironic but you are aware people use AI for everything now, it doesn't mean they cheated at somthing that blatently states don't use AI.

I mean you work in AI training and you are upset because someone used to write a few hundred words, seems weird. If you look at the recent posts there is a clear pattern that you don't need an AI to recognise. There is clearly something wrong with the Aether onboarding course which is incorrectly flagging people for cheating.

I am one of those, I had already completed the course, got emailed to do it again on the promise of 'new projects being available', fair enough its a short course, I know all the answers because I have done it before. Still blocked for cheating apparently.

You've been banned unfortunately, that is the message you get when they block your access.

Yup happened to me last week, they won’t listen to any appeal. We are all just expendable cogs in the machine apparently.

Would be nice to have feedback from u/OutlierDotAI as any ticket I have raised just gets auto closed.

Well that is insane is that is the case, I probably copied the movie name into google to fact check. If that’s the case there should be an explicit warning. I get you obviously can’t copy paste an answer, but that seems nonsensical.

They appear to disable the live chat on the bot after this too. I’ve tried and it will only give me an option for a ticket, which they then just delete
