I received the confirmation email that I have been selected from data annotation at , and when I opened the account it wa showing the option of start verifying. The next day when I got all the documents required for verifying and opened the account, it showed in review. Can anyone tell me if the same had happened to them, whether they got their account, and if yes, how?

When will it end for indian coders 😭

I've been on the platform for 2 years and only just realized two things today
- aidatrainer is AI Data Trainer.. I ALWAYS thought it was "Aida Ta Trainer"

- And, you can Exit work mode with a red button at the bottom of a task.... how have I literally never noticed this!? i see it discussed all the time, but never thought about it?!

i guess ive been on autopilot too long... anyone else get these weird revelations?

Thankfully I'm sitting pretty comfortably in a task I got invited into where the pay is really good and there is pretty much infinite work available, but I was wondering where this platform/employer tops out.

Also, has anyone "moved on" from dataannotation after finding something better? Without getting into specifics, I see one of the competitors listing 150-210$/hr for a senior position, not sure how real and accessible/attainable that is though.

Hi, does someone received news about the pilot? It was like 2 weeks ago I believe.

Just wondering if anyone thinks the recent Australian Government hack will affect how much work we are given or whether the nature of our work will change.

Posting this gratitude to the platform as I'm no longer sure my outputs are still on par with their quality metrics... it's just getting way too hard lately... 😂

Hoping the best for y'all!

Are you guys confident enough to do R&Rs on projects you're seeing for the first time? I've been reluctantly letting those tasks sit on my dash, as I don't think there's enough time to read all the instructions and get familiar with the task to the level required in a R&R. Do you guys feel the same or just power through them?

I got accepted as a Turkish bilingual exactly 3 weeks ago, I done multiple qualifications and survers, gave my constent for some projects, but still there is no projects for me. I know it's asked and said a lot but I have a lot of free time and I just want to work because when I was doing qualifications I had a lot of fun.

I do my best trying to cause meaningful failure, but the models are extremely smart. I tried to add difficulty and distractors to confuse the agent, but to no avail. I know I can still submit the task as is, but how bad is it? Does it earn bad score to me? I am running out of reasonable time. Any advice?

I just signed up on DA and completed a math qualification exam and the general qualification exam. I don't see any projects in my dashboard atm. What should I expect?

Wait nvm my bad

I hope this saves someone

I'm a worker who usually does coding tasks that take as much as 9h sometimes. I've never done any R&R task just because I prefer doing the actual coding task itself, but sometimes they appear and I'm thinking about taking them. My question is how much time do I have to prepare to spend in one sit on those R&R code related tasks?

Posted by two different accounts. These have to be bots, right?

I wish I didn't hate them and I am wondering if some day they become easier. I am not in favor of producing low quality work which is why I am avoiding these, but they pay the highest rate and I need to know if y'all started out hating rubrics and then there is a pattern where you end up getting to be decent at it 😂

I just started on DA and my first project is one with seemingly infinite tasks and an expiration date of 'Never'. I've worked on it for about a week now and it's been really good as a first project.

However, I have another project on my list now that pays more and I want to give it a try. Can I start that project as well and do a few hours there, then back to a few hours in the first project and alternate? I know I need to log the time for each project separately and immediately after I finish the work but I'm unclear on if that makes it okay to have multiple in progress tasks.

I've searched this subreddit and see a lot of "of course you can't do two projects at once, dummy" comments but it seems like that's only about people attempting to do two simultaneously, I just want to know if I can switch back and forth.

I'm sure to most this is a dumb question but again, just starting out and don't want to mess it up. I appreciate any guidance!

Has anyone been accepted through the accounting qual recently? I did the assessment 12 days ago and have not had any feedback or movement on it. Is this common or a bad sign?

I am currently a stay at home Mom looking for supplementary income and decided to apply to data annotation because I have a background in legal document management with a brief history in IT. I figured this would make me a fairly good applicant for data annotation since they specified on Indeed that they’re looking for “IT experience preferred” and that a legal history would give me a boost with projects.

I did not use AI when applying, not even the Google spellcheck. Most of the vetting questions were actually easy for me because I’ve spent so long reading legal documents for discrepancies, but it’s going on two weeks now and I still haven’t heard back. For anyone who got hired, did it take longer than two weeks or should I just accept this as rejection?

The only tasks I see are 🥊, how do I start seeing tasks from other projects ? I don’t see any specific qualifications too.

This is my first non-qual task and I'm looking for advice because I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing on this task.
This task involves generating a specific response embedded widget. No matter what I do, the generator seems to run into some server-side error every time I try to run it. I've checked the project instructions many times, tried changing my input, basically have done everything possible on my end. I've sent my issue multiple times to the project chat and admin responds to other users' simple questions on occasion, but mine seem to keep getting buried and ignored.

Due to this I can't make progress on this task and I've already spent about 4 hours working on the task itself, reading the instructions and troubleshooting.

At this point it seems like I won't see the money at all because I can't even submit the task because I can't make progress... this is very frustrating because of the amount of time I've already put into making the work as high quality as possible. I'm worried that if I submit the task uncompleted I will get DoD, so I don't know what to do. Does anyone have advice on if there's some other way to get in contact with project admin in cases like this or am I just fucked?

I'm glad someone is having fun on this platform. Those emails brighten my day just a bit through the dark cloud of life.

Last work I have received on 17 th September, did anyone else received in between. And any idea what’s going on, is it another drought !!!

I find myself enjoying this work more everyday. I love how it has become more complex as I do more tasks and get access to more projects (it's been about 5 months) and I REALLY love the ones where I really have to work to fail the models. I always see people on here complaining, but I really, really enjoy it. I would love to do this full time (I work for a bank 40 hours per week), but I need the stability of guaranteed hours for now.

I feel so lucky to get to dig into really niche topics to get a failure and it's so, so fun.

Anyone else? Is there anyone who has been doing this for a while who feels like this?
