HITs - Human Intelligence Tasks - are individual tasks that you work on.
Amazon Mechanical Turk is a marketplace for work
that requires human intelligence. The Mechanical Turk service gives
businesses access to a diverse, on-demand, scalable workforce and gives
Workers a selection of thousands of tasks to complete whenever it's
convenient.
Amazon Mechanical Turk is based on the idea that there are still many things that human beings can do much more effectively than computers, such as identifying objects in a photo or video, performing data de-duplication, transcribing audio recordings, or researching data details. Traditionally, tasks like this have been accomplished by hiring a large temporary workforce (which is time consuming, expensive, and difficult to scale) or have gone undone.

A Human Intelligence Task, or HIT,
is a question that needs an answer. A HIT represents a single,
self-contained task that a Worker can work on, submit an answer, and
collect a reward for completing.
