What It Is

You sign up with companies that pay people to help train AI, such as Outlier AI, DataAnnotation, Appen and Clickworker. Tasks include writing prompts, labelling images, rating AI answers and recording short voice clips, all done on a phone or computer.

The Pitch

Diamond says AI still needs humans to train it and that tasks can pay $10 to $30 each.

Who It’s Best For

Careful, detail-oriented people who are good at following instructions and want flexible hours.

The Truth (as we see it)

Pay per task varies widely, and many sites have long waits for approval, tests to pass, and periods with no work available. Her per-task figures aren't backed up. She promotes her paid one-on-one 'spark session' calls and her free newsletter in the video.
