Employees say they weren’t adequately warned about the brutality of some of the text and images they would be tasked with reviewing, and were offered no or inadequate psychological support. Workers were paid between $1.46 and $3.74 an hour, according to a Sama spokesperson.

    tools to strip the best parts of humanity away from us so that AI can do creative activities like poetry and art

        There’s nothing to elaborate on. It’s a stupid position put about by luddites and perpetuated by people with no understanding of the subject. It’s so not on target it’s not even wrong!

          I’m a DevOps engineer. I work with big technology every day. I am very definitively not a Luddite. But the way the capitalists controlling our economy view and want to use AI is harmful to us, the lower and middle classes. I’m not sure which part of my view is so stupid that it enters into psuedoscience, leading me to not even being wrong

                    You’re right, I’m not up for having this fucking discussion AGAIN! It’s not performative snark it;s frustration at idiots recycling idiotic comments to support idiotic positions hating on some very interesting technology, and on the off chance there is a real grip they’re blaming the wrong thing.

                    Give me an argument worth engaging with and maybe I’ll engage in good faith. That has not happened here

                    again

                    Do you understand the distinction I’m making here?
