'AI Is African Intelligence': The Workers Who Train AI Are Fighting Back Kenyan workers are still the underpaid labor behind AI training, moderation, and sex chatbots. The Data Labelers Association is fighting back.

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

The longer I listen to this google g*mini consultant the more obvious that he has no idea how to speak to human beings, like a fraudulant pastor speaking in tongues.

Thing is, they know they're doing this. They know they're buying an out from big tech by giving away dangerous amounts of power and wealth to save their own egos.

It must not be allowed to continue, nor should it ever be forgiven. (/end)

Every big company has been over-hiring and investing in insane nonsense since 2012 (extended by Trump's money-laundering in 2020.) Executives needed to purge their numbers, but can't admit they suck at their jobs. The answer? Buy some magic computer thing no one understands and blame that. (3>)

Example: When you screw up at work, you boss can say you made a mistake or they can ask, "what happened?"

This lets you weasel out and the boss doesn't have to admit they don't understand your job. If you lie, it's not their fault. If they fail to ask, it's not yours. Now it's no one's fault. (2>)

Indirect Language is a common phenomena where you imply something while saying something else. Asking without offering to off-load social responsibility. In the Recorded World it is everything currently going wrong and why you feel like you're going crazy. Check this out: youtu.be/3-son3EJTrU

The correct terms for this whole process are political purges and illegal rescission.

But Trump officials (including Elon Musk) say β€œefficiency” and β€œprivate sector” and β€œwaste, fraud, abuse,” and a lot of peopleβ€”including much of the pressβ€”buy it. At least enough to miss the unsubtle big picture.

I would argue it isn't save-scumming, it's knowing when a strategic retreat is necessary. Especially because that was so friggin' hard! #SteelHeart #Silksong

My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you.

ICO writes to Meta over 'concerning' AI smart glasses report Videos, including of glasses-wearers using the toilet or having sex, are sometimes reviewed by a Kenya-based subcontractor.

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, β€œI do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

FTC Issues COPPA Policy Statement to Incentivize the Use of Age Verification Technologies to Protect Children Online The Federal Trade Commission issued a policy statement today announcing that the Commission will not bring an enforcement action under the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule (COPPA Rule) aga

Age verification is a scam literally engineered by p*d*****s.

We know because, in the same week as a blitzkrieg against freedom & privacy fraudulently labelled child protection, the FTC moved to repeal the one policy which bans collecting private info on children.

When someone says β€žScientists do not want you to knowβ€œ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

The Supreme Court doesn't care if you want to copyright your AI-generated art The highest court in the US declined to review a case about copyrighting artwork created with the help of AI.

And BOOM goes the dynamite. To all the AI Bros who have slid into my mentions to tell me that you CAN in fact copyright AI materials, the Supreme Court has told you to go suck rocks. A prompt is not authorship. And if there is no author, there is no valid copyright.
