is, is there a way to protect yourself from the competition that the i creates and work hand in hand with it? all this and more coming up my 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 jet 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 longer for and, and get this amount of money when to be to can. it's kind of reversed those plans because of chechnya t and the opportunities it brings the market for goals drive those collapse entirely. but many of his colleagues saw the end of their careers. tony was able to see an opportunity. i also work up a quote that today and could be enjoying you. uh you are what you are doing to
3:03 am
under living, but you do not both do number. so you have to me sylvester talent. so informed such that you understand this is what it's kind of do. and besides, it's limited and as i, you know, i can go beyond the scale. well, that's what i called positive thinking, despite massive changes in his industry. to be honest, there is plenty you can do to harness the power of a i in your own career. take a look. do a i model success in your field, if so, it's time to go to know the skills dogs. most importantly, if learn how to use this distance is 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 the best tools you know, showing on eventually they, they proves to be useful to intervene already and have any programming
3:04 am
skills. a prerequisite especially pilots and the foundation of many i models to ged 10, ride code, but you have to come to, i believe you to, to us that go, this is where everything that's very important in the same way that i'm going to be and maybe read some single text and do realize that there are mistakes that are telling me stays the same thing, come and happen. we've especially programs in cloud architects. it will be in the mind the a task is to integrate the i running and external service into companies, the existing systems. so called prompt engineers are also in high demand at the moment. problems of the inputs you've given a i and getting the results you want is an odd and itself long term. this demand for decrease as the eyes become better at understanding using these. it's changing almost all jobs, but they're also some phone phones, the big on a lot of the kind of 3 some the,
3:05 am
they don't have common sense. they don't have a sense for how they realized was works like precincts. sort of funny because those things can be learned from the data. that's why i must be used with caution f, as is to assess risk until title impact of a i could become crucial a process that has become she was really important with the item is data annotation. it means describing as accurately as 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, cross walks or traffic lights, the 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,
3:06 am
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, all off, 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 the teaching next human intelligence to a machine that is symbolic or artificial intelligence, 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 it or what is way? cuz we teach them issues by labeling on updating objects according to estimates of the markets with data annotation and labeling, withdrawal by 33 percent annually until 2027. as a result,
3:07 am
the needs for employees to categorize the data with all so increase in countries such as india, kenya, argentina, and the philippines. the workers are in many cases upstairs. 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 produced, they the web is often recruited from areas experience in poverty on natural disasters. says me, log was mutually a typical data worker is 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,
3:08 am
i feel as an indigent like i'm only know, i'm a defendant and i'm having freedom of like a financial freedom is something different if you're experiencing on everett's 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 is as low as kia, 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 as 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,
3:09 am
they wouldn't work nearly as well. how long will these jobs exist though? could a, i train itself to numbers show. that's the sense here. our a i, systems get, the more we need the inputs of humans, and the more more we need the input of humans at scale. and so i don't think that these workers will be obsolete at one point. they are plenty of things that a icons do like removing hate, speech and violent images from social media feeds. this challenging work is still 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 and what are right, as in kenya, subcontracted by big tech companies to screen explicit content before it hits your
3:10 am
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 objective. they say that even though they've watched i was up disturbing explicit content, the day the jobs came with little to no mental health support. multiple, she had said the work left him feeling depressed and desensitized, which led to the boss from his wife when he and richard raised their concerns to management. they say the company like them all in retaliation. that's why richard mate tank and most at ot and from the african compton motor rate as union pass. so that you, when you're in a stressful brain, after the kind of what's the impact on them so that we can have some water plants and how we kind of work together to bring change and pull the tech
3:11 am
industry over 250 people came to the inaugural meeting called 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 us, violate community guidelines. the projects like need something good on anything and then now you say it's good, you know, but if i've been doing that reported, and then you see the 600 material on the go, someone or, or what do you think the content you have for the, for the next, the motor radius would label to east reported video according to the policy it violated with these lot these uh, on where i textbooks for the picture of the blog. you know,
3:12 am
if somebody's being the head that you know, you love the picture on of, you know, blog or, and we've lived in human body, you know? so you have to like check the video on. it's in its entirety. and then you talk to the, 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 for else the firm would talk his pay. if i've reduce 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 a tunneling type mode is richard and most of find comfort in one another because of this shared experience. as for my content moderators with this um, commonality, 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 out sourcing companies that hire them along with hundreds of
3:13 am
other content. motor rate is inc, and yet they are supported by fox gloves. a british non profit that aims to make tech fit for everyone. and we're really hopeful that the outcome of these cases will be that facebook has to clean up its act and treat the work is cool. you know, those that are doing the work that make the, the platform usable, safe and fast. richard maternity has been on it in time 100 for his role in the world of a i all 3 hope the stories will inspire young tech workers to fight for decent 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,
