    I'm a bit like Slinky and can't see it being all that different to the Prolific assistant we have now. For elsien the 3 main selling points are quoted as:

    • Instant desktop notifications with badge counts
    • Exclusive high paying studies and tasks
    • Coaching and assistance in tasks

    Like I say not expecting much.

    Has everyone had the email requesting they take part in an evaluation study for continued access to AI training?
    It looks like we don't have a choice but to take it now, but please be cautious as I've read elsewhere that many appear to have lost access to the studies straight after taking it (possibly a bug that will get resolved, but something to be aware of if anyone needs the income at the moment)

    Yes, I have had this email. I attempted to take the study and took a while to complete it to ensure I was answering correctly only to find I was timed out. Have messaged the researcher so will see what they say, if anything

    I did a normal AI-Images evaluation this morning and after I'd completed it all studies had gone so not sure if there is a more general bug?

    they are showing up for me, but I do find anyway that sometimes after you’ve done one they vanish for awhile and then come back again

    I'm not getting any of the compare AI ones now, having had lots for several weeks. Guess it's my turn to go quiet. There were some £20 for 1 hour studies on judging the quality of the AI reasoning, but I decided they were beyond me!

    I stopped doing the AI ones a couple of months ago because they are so frustrating. But Prolific keep on sending them - I have 50 studies showing at the moment, almost all of which are AI. It's not easy to find the other ones, since one cannot sort by time, or title, or reward - only by newest or oldest. So I probably miss quite a few non-AI which I would happily do. My earnings have dropped considerably, anyway.

    You can block the researcher if that helps. You can unblock them in future if you want.
