Nigeria too (aka the reason ChatGPT likes saying “delve”)
I recommend reading the book ghost work, its 30€ from amazon or how much you can afford it for from Annas archive
I’ll check
Can anyone explain to me
Amazon had their walk in walk out stores.
AI was meant to track what you put in the basket and charge you without you going through checkout.
They launched as an AI store.
Humans were looking at cases and were just meant to be “error correction”.
They were doing 80% of the work of tracking the images and barcodes into actual products.
Amazon closed the store.
Lots of “AI” systems are currently in this state. A computer can do the easy 10 to 20% of the job. Humans are doing the rest.
Venture capital are just investing in anything that looks like it’s working on “AI”. Even when it’s currently taking more human labour than the work did previously.
Companies are launching now as “AI” gambling on getting that percentage up otherwise they end up late to market. Lots will fail to actually use AI and probably fold.
AI will be next .com bubble
i tried to run an llm locally and as soon as i hit download hundreds of thousands of indian and pakastani people started spewing out of my computer
I hope you’re being ironic with the meme and not because you think AI isn’t based mostly on human labor theft and data
Everything is based on labor theft in a capitalist society. Using AI isn’t more evil than buying groceries.
Wait so LLMs use data?
an llm once asked for my ssn
…and did you?
yea ofc
i hope youre not a nazi
me too
This is brilliant. Thanks for sharing!
It is joked that“AI” stands for “absent Indians”
All Indians
Nm- bad take
Please elaborate
just one example
Did the store have 1000 customers at a time?
Would have been cheaper to just have a worker follow each customer around the store
Ever been to India? I’m pretty sure the 1000s of underpaid Indians were super happy to have that job.
yes, very sad ;(
If they’re underpaid, why do they take the job?
Why do the poor not just make more money are they stupid?
So you don’t have an answer, just snark. Even in the US, companies pay different rates based on the local cost of living. Where are your posts crying about that?
You are dumb. Why would someone choose to work 3 jobs instead of one well paying Job? You are ignoring basic economics and basic survival
Because underpaid is better than starving to death
Have you heard of capitalism?
