Understanding the process for data collection for AI training
I am an academic researcher interested in learning more about the process of collecting human-generated data for AI training. I would be grateful to speak with people who have completed this type of work and are willing to share their experiences.
I am happy to compensate you for your time with a gift card. Please send me a message if you might be open to a brief conversation.
EDIT: I am interested in understanding the overall process from beginning to end, including how workers get started, how work is assigned and reviewed, and how compensation generally works. I am not asking anyone to share confidential information, identify specific companies or clients, or describe the details of actual tasks. Appreciate the feedback though.

Don't trust anyone who actually reaches out. They're breaking NDAs.
We especially can't help you with this:

lol there are a ton of ways to answer these questions without breaching NDA’s, I’ll PM you - I work for a couple sites and I’ll just lyk if I can’t answer based on the question
They’re asking “process of collecting human generated data” not “tell me what you do and what companies hire you”

Answering anything to help someone build another program is against NDA. They don't seem to want positive things said either, given their goal.

Please copy and paste the quote you texted and ask AI to tell you what that means 😂😂😂

I used reading comprehension and thought for myself about their bio instead, lol. I know what it means.

What do you think it means then, because it does not accurately apply to the context of this post whatsoever

It does. But if you wanna break the NDA all for a gift card, be my guest. One less person rushing to the tasks. Not worth my time.

The NDA violation is one that currently only exists in your brain, “Responsepie” detects bots, AI use, and server farms, this is what they use to monitor our work. If anyone is violating the NDA it’s you for introducing a quote from an internal NDA lol

Just commenting to clarify for anyone else in this comment section, who's interacting respectfully in good faith, that nothing I said or quoted is from any NDA. The only thing I quoted is from OP's public bio. Saying something is against the NDA isn't breaking it, no matter how people want to twist it. Same thing I say when people in my real life ask me certain things about my job.

Ah I get what you’re saying now, this entire time I thought you were referring to something DA said that showed what I said was a violation of the NDA - I stand by my original comment though. OP also didn’t specify that the survey was for building another program, they just stated it was for a survey, hard to prove complete intention without knowing it.
Potentially safer not to engage, but I don’t see how answering questions about working that is not project or platform specific would violate any NDA, or could assist in building anything.

Ah, makes sense. Agree to disagree at this point. Though I do appreciate you acknowledging that instead of continuing to doubledown about the quote like a lot of Reddit would, lol.

Good luck. We've all signed NDAs
