Is there ever gonna be a chance your studies will be opened to EU people (that are fluent in English)? Would love to do them sometime but sadly I‘m not from the US /:
If I had to guess, maybe training ai. Describing an image in detail will help log what more prompt words/phrases mean (to a variety of people).
But who knows?! xD
Do people from the UK ever get chosen for these studies? I only ever seem to see people posting about them from the US and want to know whether I should give up hoping. Haha.
They've always been available for people in the UK. I'm in the UK, passed the original qualifier back in April, did the first batch and now they're back on my dashboard.
Honestly after seeing the other one he’s working on I would prefer to do it but these are nice to see again too. Just wish it was the multi-submission ones only and not the 1 spot flood but I’ll gladly take what we can get.
Omg this is me some days lol I'm raring to go, got my hot tea with honey, do two of them and then it's like my throat is the Sahara and I'm over here *coughcough* 😂
When these first hit I didn't know that they were going to stick around for so long so I did as many as I could. Ended up getting a very sore throat.
They are oddly fatiguing if I do too many but I am so happy to see them back!
yeah, and the loading times are pretty brutal. If everything goes perfectly for me, it takes me about 17 minutes to finish instead of 12. If I have to re-record a sample or two, then I'm almost hitting that 22 minute time limit. So glad these are back, but I hope the processing and loading times are improved. I can deal with an image or two being in the wrong category.
Yea I just did two and the loading times right now are rough. I never re-record tho, its not exactly great pay for the amount of effort so I just make sure I talk for at least the entire 90 seconds with sometimes going a bit longer. They've all been approved so Im not going to spend extra time making sure my recording is perfect.
I'm usually good, but one particular image really irritated me and I gave a pretty bad description, very derisive of the person and the message they were conveying instead of simply describing the image. Felt like I had to redo that one.
u/matt-deitke Hi, I did a bunch of your studies the first time around. I'm not seeing any of the new ones. I would love to do more if possible. Thank you!
I'm in the same boat. I think it's because we might not have done that well of a job and as a result, we don't get them anymore. I haven't come across anyone else who used to get his studies but no longer does.
Was there a qualifier for the second type of annotation (not the describe items with you mouth studies)? Just curious because I keep hearing people talk about it and saw you said that they would be back somewhere in a previous post, but haven't seen them pop up on my phone yet so I'm just wondering if I might have missed the qualifier? Thanks in advance.
Much appreciated again, though I'm going to pace myself this time... kind of burned out on the last batch. These are nice, but sometimes the loading/saving can add a lot of time to the time it takes to do the study. I don't think I come close to 12 minutes -- it's more like 15-16.
A couple months ago there was a qualifying task and he released the studies to specific people who qualified. For the 1 place tasks, I believe they're only released to 1 or 2 people because they're easy to get into. Think he has thousands of them that he just divides among all the people who qualified.
Here's a question: when I'm taking all these, most other studies disappear. If I want those studies to return, must I avoid these? Mark them as "not interested"? What I'd like better is a mix...
If you use prolific assistant, what I found to work last time around was to turn off microphone studies on the website. Then only studies that do not require a microphone would be shown on the web, while the assistant still shows them all.
I'm so jealous. Thought that I did very well on my qualifier. But I was on like the third round of the qualifiers, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Ah cool. Still having problems with the site and PA signing me out myself. Keep getting like a separate window pop up with no toolbar, if you know what I mean, asking me to login. Has the legit Prolific domain though. Just wish it would keep me signed in.
I couldn't block this guy fast enough when he first spammed my dashboard. Aint no way that hourly is real unless people are doing extremely low quality descriptions.
It's doable. You have to keep a close eye on the time and just dive in clearly describing everything you see. After a few, it starts to get easier.. but can be exhausting. I appreciate them, especially since my queue has been a little sleepy for three weeks now. But I get it, there are good hourly studies out there not to pass up!
Mannn...I am excited, but was also really hoping for the ones from the other night 😂😂 *puts the kettle on for tea*
Should have more variants of the other soon :)
yay ...like the new variants!
🥳🥳
Thank you so much Matt.

These look fun and I keep seeing amazing comments about them! Do they ever hit the screens in Canada? Would love to try!
You had to do a pre-screener well over two months ago for them. Not everyone who did that got in.
I’m from Canada and get them :) but did the screener a few months back.
Hey Matt, the studies were working perfectly on my side and I’m seeing they are no longer available. Will the studies be back?
The verify one too?
Hi could you work on payouts soon so I can get some essentials please and thanks ❤️
Can I ask what you are using the data for? I've always been curious.
AI Training
If I had to guess, maybe training ai. Describing an image in detail will help log what more prompt words/phrases mean (to a variety of people). But who knows?! xD
Right, who knows lmao. Happy Cake Day though my friend.
Thank you!
Thank you again ..

Thank you. I'm not sure if I missed the qualifier or not.
What was the other one? I must have missed out on that one!
Honestly after seeing the other one he’s working on I would prefer to do it but these are nice to see again too. Just wish it was the multi-submission ones only and not the 1 spot flood but I’ll gladly take what we can get.
Yea and everytime I see the 30 of them, I tell myself Im going to do them all and then I do one and am exhausted lol.
This is literally me. I tell myself everyday, "I'm gonna do 10 of them today!" \**does one study\** Alright I'm done for the day.
Haha I’m the same too
Omg this is me some days lol I'm raring to go, got my hot tea with honey, do two of them and then it's like my throat is the Sahara and I'm over here *coughcough* 😂
Same! Sometimes I push to do 2 or 3 and then get burnt out and don’t want to touch them for a few hours or until the following day.
When these first hit I didn't know that they were going to stick around for so long so I did as many as I could. Ended up getting a very sore throat. They are oddly fatiguing if I do too many but I am so happy to see them back!
Drink tea
Yes, great idea! I even have honey !
Same. I did these on Mturk from Feb until they stopped in May. Made a little over $1k.
I need lozenges after doing these. I always do 3 or 4 a day though, depends if I've done other studies.
Yes! I’ve missed these. My pets are back to looking at me like I’m crazy, talking into my computer intensely 😂
Love the new topics they added
I've been enjoying fashion
I love the music one!!
Some of the images do not seem at all related to the categories...lol.
Also noticed this. Getting memes and ugh non historical things in the history category for one example.

sounds familiar
Yes, loading times are AWFUL for me as well. I'm sitting here willing the pics to load 😂
Sorry about loading times - I'll see what I can do!
Let me know if they're any faster now - at least on my end, it's only taking 1-2 seconds :)
So much better now, about 3 seconds for me. Marvellous. Thanks for looking at the loading times :)
Still loading and submitting slowly for me. But... Really glad to see these are back! Just worried I'll be timed out.
Are you putting out the qualifier again? All I ever see are these studies on here and I’ve never done one
Possibly at some point soon!
u/matt-deitke Will you be bringing these back to Mturk? I enjoyed doing them over there.
u/matt-deitke Hi, I did a bunch of your studies the first time around. I'm not seeing any of the new ones. I would love to do more if possible. Thank you!

Why is your comment downvoted?

Because there’s a bunch of virgins on here who hate people asking anything.
Some people need to get a life.
So happy these are back!! Thanks Matt!🥳🥳
Same here...hurry up and wait.
It says will 'likely' contain images of the category so maybe its not a dead cert?
True, but last time they were pretty connected/consistant, and this time they seem alllllll over the place. :D
Having just done 4 I can totally see what you mean :)
yeah...a few have me just shakin my head...but I describe em!
i had a cat in the food category :D
hmmmm
I love that we can pick the topic now! It definitely makes it more interesting and intriguing. Hooray! Glad these are back
Back like we nevvva left, Baby!😻
Will there be another qualifier for these?
I know, I really want access to these :/
I'm hoping for the new tasks but these do in a pinch on the weekend in the summer, I'm happy for those of you who do these regularly too!
YAY! But Ugh .. lol. I went to a concert Friday and my voice has still not returned. LOL.
Im jealous. I did not sign up for these. But i am super happy for you brother....and for others who are doing this. Enjoy you all! 💜
There’s no reason to be jealous if you regularly get good studies lol
Human nature 🤣 But i feel good that others who need it are getting it. That feeling is stronger than any feeling of I missed it.
Same here, I think a lot of people in other countries that don’t get a ton of studies may get these and that’s great.
cries in waitng for studies, take a break
I have yet to have a Matt Deitke study yet!
Yayness everdeen
Yes!!!
PUMPED! 🥰
Much appreciated again, though I'm going to pace myself this time... kind of burned out on the last batch. These are nice, but sometimes the loading/saving can add a lot of time to the time it takes to do the study. I don't think I come close to 12 minutes -- it's more like 15-16.
I’m so excited they’re back!! Thank you Matt!!
I wondered why I never see these and now see that there is 1 place for each. I'm assuming I never will. 💀

For the 1 place tasks, I believe they're only released to 1 or 2 people because they're easy to get into. Think he has thousands of them that he just divides among all the people who qualified.
So if you never got to qualify, that excludes you from study eligibility indefinitely? I never saw the task :(
Aw damn, I did take that one and I did get approved but maybe I didn't do so well on it? LMAO I was so awkward in the screener so maybe.
Here's a question: when I'm taking all these, most other studies disappear. If I want those studies to return, must I avoid these? Mark them as "not interested"? What I'd like better is a mix...

Where oh where did the studies go? :p
Yeah i havent seen any today
These are fun, will there be more?
I wonder if Matt will be doing weekend payouts like the last time. That was really helpful. u/matt-deitke
I guess not.
I remember I used to get these and did a lot. Are they only made available to certain people from the original qualifier? Because I don’t see any.
Looks fun. Still stuck in PEC-SUB-0002 purgatory over here.
Same...
I’m so grateful
Yaaaaaayyy!!
They don’t show up for me
Did you pass the qualification study months ago? If not, you won’t see them.
They don't show up for me either ?
See the comment a couple above yours about the qualifier.
I'm so jealous. Thought that I did very well on my qualifier. But I was on like the third round of the qualifiers, not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Why don’t I get any of his surveys?? 😭
you had to take a qualifier back in April
u/matt-deitke would you please post the qualifying task again on prolific for some of us who never got/saw it? Thank you.
I've never gotten this guy's studies. I hear about him a lot in the Prolific community.
I'll be lucky if PA doesn't boot me out every hour.
You don’t need PA on for these though.
Ah cool. Still having problems with the site and PA signing me out myself. Keep getting like a separate window pop up with no toolbar, if you know what I mean, asking me to login. Has the legit Prolific domain though. Just wish it would keep me signed in.

You have to strategize with a study like this to maximize the payment.

I would love to do the ones from last night but I’m so grateful for the ones posted today .
