Ask HN : For what are you using Amazon mechanical turk?
I was reading submission here and saw that : " when we showed that video to a random sample of 100 people in Amazon Mechanical Turk, 80 were interested enough to give us their contact info" on http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=453303 .
That's an interesting use of Amazon mechanical turk.
What do you use it for?
- queensnake 18y agoI've heard of a use, of gathering a text corpus of a certain type, eg "find an example of text where someone is unsure and asking for advice on something".
- dan_sim 18y agoI remember the story spammer using mechanical turk to solve CAPTCHA.
