Creators are cashing in on a “Facebook renaissance” And Indonesian creators are leading the charge.

The creator economy in Indonesia isn’t just opportunity.
It’s volatility.

How Fake AI Influencers Generate Real Cash From deepfakes to affiliate links, producers of AI influencers are finding ways to make money even if brands aren’t interested in working with them.

AI influencers making real money isn’t just a gimmick.

It’s an authenticity story.
It’s a power story.

If influence becomes synthetic, who owns the audience?

Is “AI Trainer” just the modern version of stuffing envelopes?

Platforms are offering $15/hr to “train AI” while collecting enormous value from human workers doing repetitive digital labour.
The tech is new but the power imbalance isn’t.

What an interesting—and unsettling—read:

Google’s Sundar Pichai suggests a “marketplace” will emerge where creators simply “create for AI.”

What an interesting—and unsettling—read:

Google’s Sundar Pichai suggests a “marketplace” will emerge where creators simply “create for AI.” But history tells us what happens when platforms remove the so-called middlemen: control shifts, labor is devalued, and creators lose agency.

Handover Handover is on a mission to stop key company knowledge from exiting the building. Powered by AI-technology, we guide employees through a smart, personalised process to create a rich, complete transfer of knowledge with utmost efficiency and transparency.

Is https://www.handover.ai/ a cool #knowledgemanagement hack (software video interviews you, generates a role-specific handoff kit) or a way to get human workers to offboard to #digitallabor replacements. Does what you know belong to you, or your employer?

We might #tax close to the edge of harm. Watts and water at data centers (favoring harder-to-meter #decentralized #AI). Collect unemployment insurance (and #basicincome contributions) from employers of #digitallabor.
