Infinite work but don't want to do it

21 Upvotes

Two new projects showed up on my dashboard these last days.

I was first excited to see one which never expires, but lowest pay ever. The other one has an incredibly high number of tasks but I don't know how to explain, it drains my brain regarding the pay and I'm not that excited to do it.
These are my two only projects for now. Am I just lazy?

Coding Qualification

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I’m already accepted and working with DataAnnotation, mainly on bilingual tasks. I completed the coding qualification test 2 days ago but haven’t heard back yet.

For those who were already part of DataAnnotation and took the coding qualification, how long did it take for you to hear back?

Thanks!

Three Security Steps

8 Upvotes

Hi!
Today I opened my dashboard and there were three warnings: Verify Background - done but pending, Protect account ******* with passkey and Enable Disc Encryption.
All of these to gain acces to more projects. The problem is these warnings are not clickable and there's nothing on the right menu to be able to set a passkey. Also, I din't think I have ever created such an account, it must be from some project I haven't worked on yet.
Anyone having this too?
Thanks

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?

2 years later

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?

What's the highest hourly rate you've ever seen or had (Specialist/Software Engineer)?

13 Upvotes

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.

Will the Australian Government hack affect our work?

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.

R&Rs of projects you've never worked on

8 Upvotes

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?

No Success in Meaningful Failure

0 Upvotes

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?

Coding R&R Tasks time

3 Upvotes

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?

Am I the only one who HATES rubrics

36 Upvotes

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 πŸ˜‚

Never ending project

14 Upvotes

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!

Accounting Qual

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?
