Prolific Academic Survey Alerts

People on Reddit are saying that they opened up the AI image studies to the wider participant pool rather than the specialized participant group. I don't know if that's true but I had a few image studies pop up again last night but I couldn't get into them.

I've been trying to get into an AI study multiple times tonight but keep getting the 'Error: this study is no longer available' message. It's so frustrating!

I don’t think that is you,  I think that’s an issue with the study. It’s going up and down between 1211 and 1214 as people try to enter it and then return it.

Thanks! I've just hidden it from my dashboard to stop myself 'just checking if it might work this time'!

I tried four or five times and returned them each time. There was another this morning that had the same title that I was able to get into but since that one actually worked all the places were taken and it disappeared.

Have people who received a 'slapped wrist' manual review warning on the AI studies been offered them again? I realised I'd screwed up misreading a prompt and picked the wrong video (seduced by swimming kittens), too late to change it. I'd have to hope that one error doesn't get me booted off forever?

Not sure Slinky - I've never had an feedback, slapped wrist or otherwise on any of the AI studies!

Speaking of the $5 video ones I finally just saw one again after a few weeks, clicked furiously and then couldn't get on.  Never had trouble before getting on those ones if I saw one in my studies, so it will be annoying if this is the new norm.

It seems like they're broken. No one can get into them. Also, judging by all the comments over on Reddit it sounds like pretty much everyone who did the AI video studies before they broke got that email warning.

I hadn't done any of those AI ones for months. I've only ever had a handful in the past, unlike a lot of people who seem to get loads. I got 4 on Wednesday afternoon, then more popped up yesterday afternoon that I couldn't get onto but got 3 yesterday evening of which one generated the slapped wrist.  I've seen 1 today that I couldn't get onto.

I have been offered several a day, but I simply haven't had the time to do them.  Sounds as though that is just as well!
