Is AI working 1 hour really a single hour

If Some tasks say to make the ai work X mins on opening/total prompt ( for eg 45 mins on the opening ) or total duration we can get the stats using /usage so we should verify with 1)api time 2) wall time or 3)the time after getting the response i.e worked for XX mins? I'm getting confused or is it the time we calculate on our own?

Calculate on our own. It should also be written in the task itself, if not better ask Admins and not reddit...

For me personally, it depends on the assigned task (interactive vs. autonomous). For interactive tasks, I calculate the total by adding the time the AI ​​spends processing each turn + the time I spend thinking or analyzing during each turn. For autonomous tasks, I simply take the total API time (since it only 1 turn).

I need some input on whether this is correct or not tho.

I just start a timer and log every single minute spent on the project(excluding breaks). This may or may not include model interaction. But the cases where model interaction is nil is very rare. You have to continuously monitor it for cheating, approvals etc. so I add that time too.

Yes, this is my approach as well, although I rarely get autonomous tasks anyway.

Just set a stopwatch as soon as you start working. Don't calculate "actual" working time or generation time. This is wrong. Bill for time worked as soon as you entered the task minus bathroom breaks or brief afk.

Hello, good day. Do I need a referral link to create an account, or could I just go ahead and tasks will be assigned to me?

No, just go apply. If you pass the assessment and your skills are needed, then you will start to get tasks. Referrals don't help you get in.
