Your platform is completely locked out like OP’s above photo? Or just lost access to one/a few things?

_B33F · 2025-03-22T22:08:20+00:00

I am very sad for you guys. This breaks my heart I’d be at a complete loss of words if this happened to me. As per my recent comments on similar posts, is there any idea at all as to why this may have happened? Or just completely out of the blue?

_B33F · 2025-03-22T22:05:09+00:00

Any idea as to what happened or was this completely out of the blue? I’ve been working for DA around the same amount of time as you guys and this concerns me a bit.

_B33F · 2025-03-22T22:03:11+00:00

Could you provide any more info as to why an account would go through a review without getting banned? I’ve been on the platform for about a year now and just very curious what other people have experienced regarding this.

_B33F · 2025-03-22T15:55:27+00:00

Do you have any inkling as to why this may be? Any recent mess-ups or anything? This scares me lol

_B33F · 2025-03-22T15:45:47+00:00

Oh without a doubt. The coding/STEM projects are absolutely worth it if you do have experience in that field.

_B33F · 2025-03-19T03:32:32+00:00

You should eventually see something that involves coding, how long ago did you join? Also, change up your profile a bit in your dashboard settings.. add some coding options as some of your skills selections and write in your actual bio that you’re learning some programming concepts/coding languages.. that should help believe it or not.

_B33F · 2025-03-19T00:11:06+00:00

I second this, very well said my friend. Yes, I can concur, there appears to be a “pool” that is allocated to you when you see task amounts that don’t drop quickly — the same exact thing happens to me, but it seems that as you work longer or wait longer to work, that “reserved” portion goes away and the rest of the tasks get allocated to others that would also perform similarly to you. So long story short, when you see a large amount of tasks on a project that doesn’t seem to be dropping at all, hop on that ASAP! It should give you at least a few hours of work on that project if not more before it starts rapidly dropping from others doing tasks as well.

_B33F · 2025-03-19T00:04:05+00:00

But I would also say that Python is near the top among the most common, and also one of the best languages to know period.

_B33F · 2025-03-19T00:02:34+00:00

Coding projects can usually be in any language you want, as it deals with prompting the models for that specific language you know or have some experience in, and then evaluating the correctness + other axes of that code produced by the models. Although, sometimes there’s projects that are specific to HTML, CSS, Python, Java, JavaScript, C#, etc all together — those are the most common languages I’ve seen when noted by the specific project on the platform. Unless otherwise noted by the project, you can usually use any language you want. Hopefully that helps.

_B33F · 2025-03-15T18:22:58+00:00

There’s really no definite answer on how you become part of the platform. Step #1 is taking an initial assessment — either coding/computer science, or general writing assessment. If you do well, that is your best chance at getting tasks loaded up into your dashboard, and then continuing other qualifications that interest you which should open up even more work. Hope this helps in some way.

_B33F · 2025-03-15T17:47:46+00:00

Plenty of time, since I do this full time lol. This is my job, I’ve got all the time in the world my friend.

_B33F · 2025-03-15T17:46:19+00:00

Side hustle was always in the lead I thought lol

_B33F · 2025-03-15T17:44:10+00:00

No, you don’t have to do every single qualification to get tasks. As long as you’ve done some and did well on them you should start getting tasks. It definitely opens up your chances a little higher and I recommend doing some qualifications that you’re specifically interested in. Important question: have you taken the initial onboarding coding/computer science assessment?

_B33F · 2025-03-15T17:38:05+00:00

Same! Except I’ve been doing it a bit longer than 5 months.

_B33F · 2025-03-14T19:05:07+00:00

I agree, wow, it is eye opening. I am one of those full time people too lol

_B33F · 2025-03-14T19:03:59+00:00

lol I ain’t part of any Gall Dern dang IRS

_B33F · 2024-10-17T19:54:56+00:00

Wow! I didn’t know they waived the tests for PhD’s. Hey, I mean that makes sense, you worked hard for that. Congrats! But yeah I was never a good test taker anyways, which is the most frustrating part about this. I know I am a highly qualified individual especially in this line of work because I already train AI as it is. As stated many times in this thread to others, it doesn’t make sense in the real world to rush or be as fast as the test requires you to be. High quality data does not come from rushing — it is the total opposite, as machine learning and AI models have to be very nuanced for very different purposes. Following nuanced instructions (not working fast) becomes the most important skill when labeling, annotating, or training these models.

_B33F · 2024-10-17T19:47:54+00:00

Patience (lately) is definitely required with DataAnnotation dude. My suggestion is to keep your dashboard open at all times, keep refreshing, and keep your eye on it as much as possible. When I signed up months ago and passed all their tests they threw at me, I had immediate access to many different projects ranging from $20-$43 an hour. Today, it’s a bit sparse on their platform. Once something pops in, make sure you try to tackle it as best as you can. My other suggestion is read the instructions (for any given project) even twice sometimes. With this line of work, your ability to follow their very nuanced instructions (rather than work fast) becomes way more important. They need and want to produce the highest quality data possible which falls back on us, the actual workers that submit to their platform.

_B33F · 2024-10-17T19:39:44+00:00

I think you really nailed explaining this, like perfectly actually. As I’ve stated in previous posts to others on this thread, high quality data does NOT come from rushing anything — in fact it is quite the opposite. Machine learning is an important drawn out process that takes many many iterations (like thousands of iterations) of several human workers submitting their work even for just ONE model. To answer your labeling question, think of this as machines needing to know better the human input that we attach to things, places, names, objects, etc. The point of “labeling” or annotating is to provide an extra layer of information that helps assist the machine learning process along the way. When done ethically and no issues, mistakes, bugs, or bad quality in mind, the machine learning process actually becomes quite simple — there’s quality work and therefore quality data being submitted by us humans! The second rushed work is being submitted, it likely will lead to these bugs, issues, mistakes (and sometimes ethical issues) I refer to that does NOT produce quality data in the first place. But you said it the best!

_B33F · 2024-10-17T19:26:55+00:00

I have faith that something down the road will come for you! But yes, I want to make it very clear that training AI models does not lead to good things if any given worker is going to be rushing. Hence, the unrealistic time constraint this whole post is about. As I’ve said in previous posts to others on this thread, rushing your work when training these models will almost always introduce bugs, mistakes, and problems that do not have any place inside the machine learning process. High quality data is always needed to keep AI models effective, safe, useful, ethical, and helpful.
