    Same here, I've had no warnings either, so I can only guess that we are not in the current wave I did make hay but would like to make some more 😂🤷‍♀️

    Mine picked up a bit yesterday - did 5 of the ai surveys as well as a few others and today had one ai this morning. A few more came up but i was about to start work.

    I wonder if the message most folks got a few weeks ago was an indicator - it said something like, we expect the current project (ie. involving comprehensive numbers of these studies) to run for quite a few weeks if not more..

    Now not to necessarily put a dampener on things, but some of us were in a similar situation with a not dissimilar project last year. Same kind of email……
    and the thing pretty much shut down a day or two after that. !

    I didn't receive that message. I've just been through them on prolific in case I missed it, it was about three weeks last time when I was phased out before they returned with vengeance, I was reading yesterday about a participant who had them every day for over a year, so who knows how their minds work.

    i’ve had a few pop-up in the last couple of days but to be honest, I’m so bored with them but I’m just not motivated the amount of money they offer.

    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.

    I've had the odd AI image one but none of the video ones since I got the message.

    Very useful to know. Surprising as I thought O2 would piggy back off a local network. Now I’m wondering what else this could be used for eg watching BBC iplayer and mirroring to the TV.

    They were asking us to refer a friend a few weeks ago so I wonder if the newbies are getting priority for them for now

    Same. I work across 3 platforms at the moment which normally means I have something to work on even if one is dry, but I'm currently dry on all 3 which is worrying!
