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.
i hope youre not a nazi
me too
The training sets were curated by shitloads of humans; some of that was through captcha; some of that was through things like Mechanical Turk that farms rote and repetitive categorization work out to tons of people in developing countries for almost no money.
This is brilliant. Thanks for sharing!
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
Nigeria too (aka the reason ChatGPT likes saying “delve”)
Huh, that’s kind of neat. Nigerian workers feed ChatGPT business articles written by Nigerian English speakers and as a result GPT adopts some Nigerian business English speech patterns.
Of course, that means whenever ChatGPT says “delve” I’m going to read it the same way as seeing “synergy” or “disruptor,” aka, with hostile intent against the speaker.
It is joked that“AI” stands for “absent Indians”
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.
So ai is just scame
AI will be next dot com bubble
Here’s fucking hoping
yes, very sad ;(
All Indians
Please elaborate
just one example
Ever been to India? I’m pretty sure the 1000s of underpaid Indians were super happy to have that job.
Did the store have 1000 customers at a time?
Would have been cheaper to just have a worker follow each customer around the store
