Is Mercor Experts a legitimate AI-training platform?

Direct expert network - and that relationship is rated "Confirmed" here because it can be checked against www.mercor.com rather than taken on Mercor Experts's word. Confidence describes how well the ownership is evidenced. It is not a rating of how the platform treats the people who work for it, which no public source covers reliably.
