A requester named Skaak Outomaat posted a training hit yesterday working with Artificial Intelligence.

Googling the name, brings back a rough translation of Chess Mechanical Turk
https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turk_(schaakmachine)

The requesters name is "Herman" which when you look at in a first and last name format turns into Herman Turk. Which could be a code name for "Human Turk"

I think it's interesting that a new requester would go through the trouble of hiding their identity but then would spend enough time researching the origins of Mechanical Turk and use a clever name surrounding it.

I wonder if this is one of those secret Amazon batches....hmmm.

Hmm interesting. I do know that I did some hits for him this week and they were fairly straightforward. Payed out same day too.

They were paid out fast, and they were all hand checked. I've noticed on some of Amazon's hits that they are being hand checked too.
