7:15 am
least insight that is there any is updated at this hour. stay tuned for our technology shows shift with a look at how artificial intelligence is already changing many professions. thanks so much for watching the people in trucks in judge west trying to feed the city center the straight to the around the world more than 130000000 people us we of mine because no one should have to
7:16 am
make up your own mind dw, may 4 mines the it's is artificial intelligence taking away our jobs or does it actually create new and improved opportunities for work? and is there a way to protect yourself from the competition that he creates and work hand in hand with it. all of this and more coming up now, one shift tony, as from nairobi, kenya is a so called ghostwriter. he produces academic texts for students all over the world and has already written 700 of them earning his living this way. but then the add to a chat, c p t came along, everything when tally, i'm going to so even when you'd say next week or next month, i will do this along to fork and,
7:17 am
and get this amount of money when to be to can it's kind of reversed those plans because of chuck c p t and the opportunities it brings the market for goals try those collapse entirely. but many of his colleagues saw the end of the korea's tony was able to see an opportunity. and i also work up a quote that's today and could be enjoying you. uh you, i went through a dream to under living, but you do not both do number. so you have to me, sylvester talent, sol informed such that you understand uh, this is what it can do. and besides its limits, and as i, you know, i can go beyond the disagreements. well, that's what i called positive thinking. despite the massive changes in his industry, to be honest, there is plenty you can do to hondo's the power of a in your own career. take a look. do a i model success than your feud. if so, it's time you've got to know the skills. most importantly,
7:18 am
if learn how to use decisions as a level come to how they work. mastering the say i models would free up time that you could be using for more creative tasks to get hit by learning other costs that fit best towards, you know, showing videos. and eventually they, they proves to be useful at joint being already in have any programming skills. a prerequisite especially pilots and the foundation of many i models to ged 10 ride called but you have to come down, believe you to, to us that go, this is where everything that's very important in the same way that something to be and maybe read some single text and jury, i thought that there are mistakes that are telling me state that same thing come from happening with both especially programs in cloud architects. it will be in the mind the a task is to integrate a i running on external service into companies,
7:19 am
existing systems, so called crump engineers, are also in high demand at the moment. problems of the inputs you've given a i and getting the result you want is an odd and itself long term. this demand for decrease as the eyes become better understanding using these. it's changing almost all jobs, but they're also some phone phones, the big 3, something they don't have common sense. they don't have a sense for how they're the words like physics or sound funny because those things cannot be there in some days. but that's why i must be used with cautious f, as is to assess the risk and societal impact of a i could become crucial a process that has become hugely important with the item is data annotation. it means describing as accurately as
7:20 am
possible. what is on an image, a text, or an audio? for example, you probably have done this before yourself. you know those tests where you have to click on all the pictures that show buses across lots or traffic lights. there are millions of data workers owning them money with similar tasks sifting through and sorting different media. they essentially teach a i systems to make the right decisions. so i might find it a bit too boring, but for others, it could be that stable job. they've wanted for awhile for more deep color savvy data was the key to his career for the savvy, grew up in the indian state of care a lot, and started categorizing data sets from home for us, for amazon, then for his own customers. today he's the managing director of in folks a company with over 600 employees in southern india. so that teaching next human intelligence to a machine that is symbolic or artificial intelligence,
7:21 am
we also use the machine learning. for example, economy thought they were safe driving, got to just called on this night. so in order to teach this machine of this car after driving the profit, what is human, what is, or what is weight goes, repeats the machine by labeling understating objects according to estimates of the markets with data invitation and labeling withdrawal by 33 percent annually until 2027. as a result, the needs for employees to categorize data will also increase in countries such as india, kenya, argentina, and the philippines. the workers are in many cases or out source, they are not in the same companies in the same building. so not even in the same countries in many cases as the places where the models the algorithms are put to use. the web is often recruited from areas experience in poverty on natural disasters. says me log was mutually a typical data worker is
7:22 am
a person who in many cases doesn't have many other options. so data work is, you know, the best options among what is available in folks is committed to giving men, women and people with disabilities. the same opportunities sense of how those passing russian am needed to start supporting the family financially. this job face like given it, giving in india to get to me like uh, i see this as an indigent. like i'm only know, i'm says defending and i'm having treat them like a financial freedom is something different if you're experiencing that. on average, the entry level salary is around 250 years per month, along with social benefits, like sick pay for maternity pay. it's good business for the international tech companies, sub contracting to info the, the work in itself is very, very demanding. so the missed that this is slow,
7:23 am
secure that this is easy, that this is just, you know, repetitive. i, you know, boeing work. it's not like that. so the relevance of these workers for the co, a industry and supply chain is you can not even put a number to that is it's priceless. i love trying out all these a i, tools and apps, but without the data workers, they wouldn't work nearly as well. how long will these jobs exist though? could a, i train itself to members show. that's the sense here. our a i systems good. the more we need the inputs of humans, and the more more we need the inputs of humans at scale. and so i don't think that these workers will be obsolete at one point. the aplenty of things that a icons do like removing hate, speech and violent images from social media feeds. this challenging work is still
7:24 am
done by human content moderate as they expose to disturbing content daily. but there isn't much psychological support in kenya, content moderate as have joined forces for better working conditions. we joined a meeting between 3 or 4 more content moderators in kenya, subcontracted by big tech companies to screen explicit content before it hits your screen. mulford oh she and was it motor rates of what to to be deep. richard maternity review, touch c p t and facebook content. so we do have, hey i, we all kept him having the same object. they said that even though they watched the hours of disturbing explicit content, the day the jobs came with little to no mental health support. multiple she and sat, the work left him feeling depressed and desensitized, which led to the boss from his wife. when he and richard raised their concerns to
7:25 am
management, they say the company lights them off in retaliation. that's why richard my tank and most had ot and from the african compton motor rate as union newman bypass of the day when you on a stressful brain after kind of what's the impact on them so that we can have some water plants and how we kind of walk, we are about to bring change to tech industry. and over 250 people came to the inaugural meeting, held in march 2023. 1 of them was james or young j o. d. i'm bold. who likes to be called mo jess. he worked as a tick tock, moderate us all over the year. when he joined an outsourcing company, his employees did not explain in full what his role as a content motivated would be. his task was to check with the comments of videos that have been reported by use as violated community guidelines. the rest the checks like did something good on anything.
7:26 am
and then now you say it's good, you know. but if i've been doing that before that, and then you see the 600 material on the go, someone or, or how do you think the content you up report is next, the motor rates would label the east reported video according to the policy it violated with the slot is uh, hold on. well, i check books for an eviction of blog. you know, if somebody's being the head that, you know, you love the picture of, you know, blog or, and we've lived in human body. you know? so you have to wait to take the video on, it's in its entirety, and then you talking about the basic videos. the former content motivated that these task around $1000.00 times per day on a time limit that he had to meet. or else the firm would talk his pay if we do is like 3 minutes long, you have to be unless that, you know, 16 seconds, you know, i'm going to set goals and everything. yeah. so that needs to have a per box of what
7:27 am
a tenant type mode is. richard and most of find comforted one another because of this shared experience. as for them, a content moderators, weekdays, and commonality. and we want to, you know, have as much strength and goals are nice as much support from boardwalks of life. they are all also to assume legal action against the big tech companies they motivated for. and the outsourcing companies that hyatt them, along with hundreds of other content moderators in kenya. they are supported by folks glove, a british non profit that aims to make tech fair for everyone. and we're really hopeful that the outcome of these cases will be that facebook has to clean up. it's ok and treat the work is cool. you know, those that are doing the work that make the, the platform usable, safe inside. richard maternity has been on it in time 100 for his role in the world of a i all 3 you hope the stories will inspire young tech workers to fight for decent
7:28 am
working conditions in the content for the ration industry. in my opinion, it's important to create decent working conditions, especially in industries that on the emerging the tech industry is creating lots of new jobs, not just in silicon valley california, but big tech need to take on the responsibility to ensure that data work isn't content moderate as a treated fairly companies in use as worldwide benefit enormously from their work. what do you think that is knowing the comments? we'll see you next time. bye for now the pico and africa. carbon offsetting projects are growing up all over 10 young
7:29 am
ladies after that is the people attending a predictor. i'm going to the single unless i called around to see exactly what can these efforts really make a difference? next d, w. we traumatized from colonization. we're focusing on the topic that has africa. we're always aware all the impossible, colonial fighting colonialism explicitly resisted or send 6 africans additional asked box. we looked at the 77 in 60 minutes on w. the words people have to say,
7:30 am
that's why we listen to every weekend on d w the a while dismissing a host of environmental challenges and goals and women are key to testing them out every single level. so welcome to africa and especially addition to mock international women's day. i am sandra the homes that nobody coming to from complex right here in uganda. and i phrased it loads joining you from league.
