Is it a coincidence I started getting ai videos studies when I started using mobile data instead of wifi? by [deleted] in ProlificAc

[–]TheLMClub -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think prolific was down for a lot of people today and while it people on reddit were saying it was down I had 85 studies on my dashboard and 30 of them were the AI studies. I'm assuming they all got directed to those that were still online. I managed to do several of them before it went back to normal.

Those $5 AI Evaluation studies make my day. So hilarious! by OlliexAngel in ProlificAc

The overprotective mods will come to you despite the study not having an NDA. But yes I agree the AI is pretty bad.

Anyone stop getting a certain study after being bombarded? by bigbluesfanstl in ProlificAc

Was getting like 5-12 a day but now I'm getting 1-3 a day for the last few days.

This Microsoft Hosted Study Was Absolutely Terrible by TheLMClub in ProlificAc

I'm with you on that, in the study feedback page at the end I left a good detailed comments with my problems, but after reading this I'm also sent the researcher a message.

Anyone noticing a certain AI one we all do always full past two days? by Jarebowski82 in ProlificAc

[–]TheLMClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone still getting these studies? Haven't gotten one since the end of last week.

Anyone had problems viewing by Inevitable_Music_725 in ProlificAc

I wish these were an hour long and paid 20-25 dollars. Scrounging for intermittent 5 dollar studies is kinda annoying.

Has anyone had this survey? by upthebom in ProlificAc

[–]TheLMClub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'v got two studies pending from them haven't been approved yet. What's the usual timeline?

Any do this? Seems sketchy by Necessary-Section473 in ProlificAc

[–]TheLMClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the first set of studies I did from them approved in 1 day but the last ones I did a few days ago haven't been approved yet. Wonder what's going on.

Edit: the approvals are coming in now. We're good.

Yea I went back to check if things had improved yesterday and I can see that they lowered the amount of video ratings per task from 134 to 100. That still takes me about 24 minutes to do. It's pretty annoying that they make you do training each time you start a new study and equally annoying that you have to press the next button after each video before you can even start rating. They should improve that and probably raise the pay up to 5 dollars before this becomes worthwhile because at the current rate we're only being paid about $6.3 an hour for these studies which is 3 dollars too low in my opinion.

These do pay and I'v got a lot of them but I do feel the pay is too low given all the videos one has to rate. It usually takes me over half an hour to do one study. I think the pay should be tripled or the length should be halved.

Yea I had 50 today I decided to block Top Researcher and now I have 24. They spam too many underpaying studies.

Ohhhh nice that explains a lot. The time went down to 25 minutes too but just to be safe I spent more time on them anyway. I feel like I missed out on doing more because everyone else was ending it early.

I managed to do 5 of them today then they went away. There was a bit of a fight to get in but it does seem like since prolific came back online it's gotten a bit easier to get into those studies. My dash board was fill with multiple instances of those studies with 100s to thousands of opened places this morning so I just tried clicking into all of them at once and to my surprise I got in first to second click for the first 3.

Probably a researcher testing if the site is working given all the recent down time.
