    is there a way of turning off the emails that just say response approved?

    Getting a bit fed up with all the AI studies requiring video now. Would be nice to have a few normal ones back again.

    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Agreed! I won't do any that need video, or those that want me upload pieces of my data. There has been a definite reduction in available AI surveys this month compared to last. In March 2025, I made over a grand through Prolific AI surveys - sadly those days seem to be long gone.

    had a load of the 15 minute Ai video studies this morning. I managed to do 4 before they disappeared but I got my first quality warning. It seems like it’s quite common to get warning messages now.

    There was a time when I was also making more than £1k a month. I was getting £24ph for certain Ai studies that allowed multiple submissions so I did 3 or 4 hours a day. It was pretty awesome to make that much from home. It was a sad day when those ended. Now I barely make £200 a month on Prolific. I need to switch my efforts to Data Annotation because I could probably get my earnings on there up to a similar amount if I put the effort in.

    My first quality warning on a video one today as well. Even if they can't give individual feedback, it would be helpful if they could give some general feedback about common errors as I have absolutely no idea what I actually did wrong, so can't change the way I am rating.

    I had a slap on the wrist for not rating enough of the fact checking image ones, but at least I there was an identifiable reason for that one.

    Don't give up on the 15 minute AI studies. I've been running hot with them for a while now. I couldn't complain if I got rotated out for a rest.

    silvercar - did changing your email preferences make any difference? I changed mine a few weeks ago and still just get the same amount of emails I always got. Thanks.
