9:30 pm
avatars on online forums. so while we criticize billionaires for shooting themselves into space, unfortunately successfully, we're missing the fact that for over a decade just means those has been profiting from a site that hosts micro job listings for the most disempowered workers. for a penny, you might pay for a person to tell you if there is a human in a photo. jeff pays is explained at the public opening of his business. amazon mechanical turk, mechanical turk is actually a small fish in the pond, but was the prototype upon which bigger micro or companies like appen, click worker, and placement, or based placement. that's in and so imagine spending an hour finding humans in this picture. and these loves, don't have anywhere near the career of waldo, and you still can't afford to buy lunch. that's called you got placement. unfortunately, when the pays this low micro work does not mean bless work,
9:31 pm
that's because workers spend a lot of their time looking for tasks. and the labor is also so cheap that sometimes it's free because payment is optional. wage theft is the norm across mechanical took sites with about 15 percent of the tasks going. unpaid micro work is also called click work because it involves and list clicking goes to work because it's completely hidden and crowd work. because it apparently takes a village to run an algorithm. and they do employ entire villages to do these menial tasks. even the village drunk is doing it in between blackouts, while a massive amount of raw data gets collected and needs to be tagged and sorted for the not so artificial intelligence, software and big tech to operate. micro workers are paid pennies to do the thankless work of sifting through hate speech and gory photos and video transcribing. audio showing algorithms how to identify various photos of cats.
9:32 pm
and they're not always cute cats. ironically, workers are asked to teach the algorithm. and once a, i can do it on its own, the labor will be obsolete, or perhaps big tech will figure out how to get cats to recognize those other cats. and then those few ones will get paid and viral videos and worldwide fame. the range of many tasks goes from the tedious, the weird, sometimes their temporary bosses request. yours ask their anonymized employees to send along their underwear, take photos of their feet or to draw pictures of their genitals like micro loans. the world bank in the u. n. c. micro work as the savior of the increasingly depressed economies of the global south. and you connect refugees and prisoners or the poor and rural areas are occupied territories to microworks platforms and spread the gospel of give work. not a oh yeah, give a man
9:33 pm
a fish who h for a day teach an algorithm to see a cat. and the man forgets he's in prison. this is not real employment. even though these tiny tasks serve as a full time job for many in 201875 percent of the crowd sourced work and listed for testers, autonomous vehicle training. for example, identifying and labeling objects in an urban environment came from venezuela. country then struggling with a currency crisis. that's probably why it has the vehicle. they're running people over on auto pilot. they've been programmed by desperate pissed off people. when working on and identifying and labeling objects herself driving software, those venezuelans were probably like this guy looks like the guy i owe money to we're going to say the square is in express lane. yeah. speed up right there. micro workers are the perfect employees,
9:34 pm
unable to advocate for themselves unable to organize or unionize, and barely recognized as workers, while crises push people across the borders. that's not a problem for big tech. that's an opportunity for them to exploit the hidden labor of the dispossessed capital without borders or restrictions has crushed the rights of workers from freelance to gig, to invisible to goes work to words we don't even have yet. for now, we can only point out what's wrong with this picture coming to you from washington dc. this is for adapted tonight the i welcome. i'm naming care vonny. we camped
9:35 pm
on vacation. now let's take the news on a private plane across state lines and hope no one ever finds out about it. speaking of which go lane maxwell, heiress and darkest karen in our timeline has finally appeared in court for her trial in new york city this week. bloomberg asks a serious question. glen maxwell, sex trafficking trial is set to be one of the biggest of the me to era. but the jury may have to grapple with a unique question. is maxwell, herself, a victim? oh, it's so hard to grapple with our women capable of taking advantage of other women and grappling. can women be sexual predators and proud us for girls just like men do? oh boy, i am grappling. i've grappled so hard and i can't get up. is maxwell herself? a victim, i have some question. first of all, are you a newspaper, bloomberg or the defense team? secondly, are you asking?
9:36 pm
what if a sexual predator was also a victim? at the same time, all doing the same things? what if words had no meaning. what if i told you that a donut is a brute? also, this questions not unique at all. the perfect female defense is to blame your crimes on a male partner. chances are he's a criminal anyways. right lady. we also have, at the same time, the trial of elizabeth holmes, she defrauded investors, doctors, and the public when selling fake at home blood tests for her startup, sarah knows her defense was she was a victim of sexual abuse. ma'am, this is not a trial about sexual abuse. you're on trial for wire fraud, please. it's trying to look ourselves in the mirror and say i can be able to, i can be a white collar criminal, a monster in international sex predator. let's use the same defenses, man,
9:37 pm
like i had no idea those girls were that young or for elizabeth holmes. i didn't know the patients were that old. they should have gone to a real doctor and bloomberg. i got a unique question. fauria. what was michael bloomberg name doing on the lead express flight logs? was he a victim to? and now in even worse knew the new varian kama come know the variance only one can be no, no, no. the variant. only band kimono. omicron, i was kidding. i studied ancient greek and college, which is true. so with my unique expertise, i can comfortably tell you that america is in a fraternity and not a good one. it's one of those breaths where you die from a beer anima hazing ritual. oh, i hate that. with the threat,
9:38 pm
the looming of another locked down and, and a dip in the stock market. fight in rush to issue a statement saying, i call on other nations at the w t o meeting to meet the u. s. challenge to waive intellectual property protections for coven vaccines. so these vaccines can be manufactured globally. i endorse this position in april. let's remember, april was like 3 decades ago and news years. and mainstream news outlets parroted the claim that the white house supports a patent waiver. and vaccines for the world. alternative media, however, reported documents reveal that despite public statements, the biden administration is not fighting for a patent waiver. but he said he was gonna look at this conversation by didn't had with an activist suffering from us. if the u. s. discovers a vaccine 1st, will you commit to sharing that technology with other countries? and will you ensure there are no patents to stand in the way of other countries and companies mass producing those life saving vaccines?
9:39 pm
absolutely, positively. this is the only main thing in the world to do where i present it now, and i propose we do it now. set aside $25000000000.00 to put together a plan now. oh, come on. that guy is dying. it wouldn't be rude not to lie. to him. yes. $25000000000.00. why don't make it $100000000000.00 to what was it you said, a horse and every stable? oh no vaccines. yeah, sure. ice cream, hepatitis c, whatever you want, you got it. i fool. we positively. it looks like america's position on the vaccine is vague and uncertain, is actually stalling in negotiations on the patent waiver at an informal meeting of the trade related aspects of intellectual property rights or the trips council. the body that determines global intellectual property rules. the u. s. declined to take robust action to approve and intellectual property waiver. come on,
9:40 pm
you are expecting robust action from him. i've had catch up more robust than this guy. the poor countries have been asking nicely for the vaccine, pat, pat and waiver for a while. so they could produce their own medicine. they were like, hey, we were just wondering if we could maybe stop this mass death from happening and bite and said, absolutely. positively. benny asked the big pharmaceutical companies. hey, would you mind if we shared the patent did formulas and they were like no, never ask us this again and bite and said absolutely, positively. i won't ever ask you this again. moving on to the poll lease in louisiana law enforcement agencies have been accused of targeting hispanic drivers and traffic stop and identifying them as white on tickets. mis identification makes it impossible to track racial bias. this has been a problem in police departments across the country. when federal agencies try to
9:41 pm
gather information about civil rights violations, everyone getting pulled over suddenly becomes why? according to police department, suspected of racial profiling, beige is white. now trope, also, white chestnut, is not that different from your average parchment police officers in the state or pulling over a disproportionate amount of sanchez's and lopez's. it's obvious and yes, of course there can be white hispanic people. and we all know, race and ethnicity are social constructs, and now police officers will be the 1st to point out that when they're accused of racial profiling. jo, calling to the enter, kiss historian david graber, the category of races completely on scientific and anyone deploying those racial categories must be assumed to have races motive, because it's ethically suspect and methodologically flawed. now, get in the car,
9:42 pm
amigo. next up, our cars are talking to cops, cars. damn. you can't trust anyone these days. i thought my old 2014 honda accord was right or die. but turns out whenever i connect my bluetooth to listen to music, the car was accessing a lot more than my throttle by which was just kate bush on repeat the car, give police access to everything in its so called infotainment system. where i've been, who i've called or texted or email photos, web search history. and it's definitely knows about the time. i googled m, i a narcissist and then googled you google, you're on nurses. and then i google therapist and my metropolitan area. while courts increasingly recognize your phones privacy as a direct extension of your own issue of cracking infotainment systems. that is, all of our information in our car and downloading their contents remains unsettled,
9:43 pm
and border patrol could be exploiting the lack of legal coverage to get that information that would otherwise be protected by a warrant. our cars are becoming a convenient mode of transportation for police to get around the 4th amendment. it's much better actually having a car just in a joke. like i did just there. i didn't have to handle my data to the authorities or pay any insurance. we have to go to a quick break, but stay right there and we'll be back with more cho ah ah, ah
9:44 pm
ah, i'm said. then i have to say that he is in the criteria in germany for many years. his main company been to deal with public opinion. those politicians pause has come to 10th. we act in line with what people expect from them, but and public opinion is produced or shaped by mass media. those are shaped by journalists. most german journalists are sympathizes of the social democrats and of the green sand for as long as it cuz you green social democratic policy projects you pass is a competent leader. you a tool that was bad for your eyes and your post. yeah. that it would stop you from
9:45 pm
having real friends and finding a girlfriend. but what they fail to mention is that you can make thousands of dollars over a weekend by simply playing video games. at the station we have a couple of them, but always wanted the fortune to was showing it's a little under half a facility originally with net. okay. much more to do except there's no little phone of course to make video games a high paying job. you have to be gifted and quick witted. i'm going to open up with spike roster missing in business to listen. in spite of him miss thompson would webpage but live from youngster to spark even started yet, glove voice. when you most told me i was doing battle accumulate news feel like the guy of the owner, but the outside world will still be stuck with these. it's hard to do. i have the welcome back. i'm still naomi cara bonnie:
9:46 pm
india's far right. prime minister and render mowdy has apparently walked back new agricultural policies, the same policies that caused indian farmers to go into crippling deck and leading to the largest protest in world history. for more we go to our top indian, but actually pakistani correspondent jaffer con. hello john for hello, naomi. look pakistani indian, it doesn't matter. what matters is that we are all united in solidarity behind the undeniable cause of no range remedy and against these fascist indian farmers, fascist indian farmers. i thought these farmers were fighting against love, that bull completely destroy them. oh yeah. they are a typical neo liberal deregulation policies that favor large corporations. small farmers say the changes make them vulnerable to competition from big business, and that they could eventually lose price support for staples,
9:47 pm
such as wheat and rice. so just another example of regular people ignoring the needs of corporations. not to mention unfair bias against india, a racist hindu nationalist. government buffer are new muslim. yeah. so what i like right wing strong men like moody and trump and bolts and r o and ha, that german guy. hitler. what? no, hitler was austrian. i'm talking about the german right wing strong man. arnold schwartzenegger . arnold schwartzenegger is australian. what ever? you know what you sound just like the 700 indian farmers that have tragically died since the beginning of these protests? oh wow. so i guess that's why modi's walking back these new policy, but know he's a right wing strong man. he doesn't care about trivial matters like death. he cares
9:48 pm
about bigger things like votes. mo, these reversal of these laws came ahead of important elections for his b, j. p. party in state such as with their par, dash, and punjab. both home to large numbers of farmers. oh, so just politics, just politics. how dare you, regular americans like you, he to stay out of mo, these affairs. but instead, you're doing the opposite citing damning examples of reagan era policies that have led to irreparable damage to the u. s. as farmers, 87 farmers unions in the us have extended solidarity to the ongoing protest by farmers in india, in a strong letter. the organizations draw a sharp connection between how agriculture has been effected by forces of neo liberalism in both india and the u. s. oh my god, it's oh, is ronald rig and this and neo liberalism, that blah blah blah. who cares?
9:49 pm
what about right wing? strong man? i don't care about american farmers. what does victor orbit and have to say about this? who victor or been that he's hungry? he's right wing authoritarian islam of probably looking at that matter. you don't appreciate right wing strong man like i do strong, they're masculine. they implement harsh austerity measures while scapegoating and under class. they do that thing where you mix up a bunch of raw eggs and drink it out of glass. here's modi, ending a speech with literally the imperial march. ah, that is real. but, you know, aside from backing down against these farmers, mo, the has done a good job. during his time in power. they net worth of indian billionaires has grown exponentially while unemployment has skyrocketed. wow. he's really achieving the american dream over there. so now that he's walked back,
9:50 pm
these policies are the indian farmers done protesting. no, the farmers will not call off these protests and will now push for other demands, including minimum support prices for crops, and compensation for the families of farmers that died during the protests. it's like, what do these people even want, you know, minimum support prices for crops and compensations for the what they want is to humiliate a strong man like no render amadi. jennifer, why do you identify with this guy so much? because i am also a strong man. fine, strong boy. fine weak boy. are you happy? yes, i am. thanks for the report you offer. thanks. i owe me. moving on, new inflation numbers are making policy makers nervous, but the real danger comes in the form of their overreaction. for more on this, we go to our intelligence failure, anders li, ah,
9:51 pm
inflation ask any mainstream economist and they will tell you that it is the greatest threat to the economy if not civilization at large. what about climate change? you ask when we don't have time for climate catastrophes when the price of bread has gone up $0.04. currency inflation can be many things like that. your cash will start filling up with hair and getting so big. it doesn't fit your wallet. it also means that prices of goods and services are rising to your money, whether it's cash, credit or check is worth less than to be clear. i just said 2 words worth in less meaning less valuable. not one word worth less, which would be a degree in economics. according to new economic data, inflation over the past year has risen by over 6 percent. to give you an idea of how much 6 percent is in this case, just take one percent,
9:52 pm
add 8 to it and then subtract 3. all right, i'm not an economist. i don't know what 6 percent means here, but everyone talking about it makes it sound really bad. more inflation means a less valuable dollar. how much less valuable you asked? 6 percent. the by the administration initially predicted that inflation would only rise by 2 percent, which is 3 times smaller. according to some economists, we should have seen this inflation coming, and it's only going to get worse. the loudest voice on this matter is former treasury secretary, whose policies led to the 2008 crash. his saginaw, larry summers. he fixed that current treasury head, janet jaelyn, needs to be way more concerned about inflation. though his opinion of her may have something to do with his other view, that the lack of women who work in math and science is probably due to issues of
9:53 pm
intrinsic aptitude. there's not a lot of data out there to support his conclusions on gender. though there is some showing that larry summers is intrinsically an ass, he thinks that all the money coming in from the trump and biden stimulus is the infrastructure bill. and now whatever they can find, the reconciliation package to wheel out on a stretcher are all causing the economy to overheat. over here is an interesting metaphor using the situation. given the state of the actual economy. for to be completely accurate, we'd have to imagine the supposed risk of overheating taking place in the middle of the yukon, where you're wearing a speedo filled with ice cubes. larry thinks the economy needs time to digest all this deeply inadequate public investment. or else inflation will knock society out of control. but it's not at all clear that government spending as much really anything to do with the increased rate of inflation. plenty of other 1st world
9:54 pm
countries has spent weigh more money on their economic recoveries and their inflation rates are more. so where did the 6 percent come from? the corner, the center for economic and policy research. it's cove it because of the pendant consumers in the united states and other countries shifted their consumption from services like restaurants and movies to goods like cars, television sets, and smartphones. this surgeon, demand for goods created the backlog of containers and container ships that we are now seeing at major ports. huh. so maybe it supply chain issues that are increasing inflation and not the mere width of a suggestion that the government should spend to improve people's lives. but if larry summers and company truly are worried about inflation, there are ways to offset government spending and make it deficit neutral. like say, raising taxes on billionaire. i thought the bleeders tracks was not the right thing to do. i thought the mark to market capital gains aspect was impracticable,
9:55 pm
and i thought the general idea of targeting a few 100 people for a special tax was something that didn't fit with my sense of the right of values. if you raised taxes on billionaires that will inflate how much my friends will be mad at me. larry's friends on wall street make money out of money out of money. if all of a sudden that money is worth less money, well then they have slightly less of their precious money. it all likelihood inflation will subside in the coming months. a 300000000000 dollar deficit sounds like a lot until you consider that we live in a 30 trillion dollar economy. but that won't stop deficit hacks from trying to raise interest rates. impose austerity and bring down wages and employment, all in the name of fighting inflation. but to same script every time. if you're actually concerned about people not having enough money for goods and services, then great. let's do something about that. but don't pee on us and say about it's
9:56 pm
inflation from dc. i'm andrew lee with redacted july. ah, here are your headlines from the future. we'll see in a few decades new autonomous flying car powered and steered by a 1000 bengali rick shaw drivers. next year you'll read monster re lance, after hundreds of mad scientist, micro workers remind him of his creators after the tragic school shooting this week . and the week before that. and the week before that will read in april. local high school student asks to have school shooting outside today. that's our show. thank you so much for tutoring in good night and keep on fighting. ah,
9:57 pm
this in their interest for some financial pundents to see the value of the currency lose value because they can gain traction on social media saying it's somehow a good thing, but not everybody is an undertaker. not everyone is a grave. robert. you know, some people are actually out there trying to be productive and productive lives and of course, that philosophy of, oh, the currency is going to 0 and less than 0. and that's a good thing. is a mad oh, driven by dreamer shapes banks control those with
9:58 pm
theirs sinks. we dare to ask the postal service delivers a 155000000000 pieces of mail every year. approximately 40 percent of the world's mail right now. the us postal service is in a flight of its life. a bad financial shape now facing diesel. the postal service is a cash cow, and there was a way to pull money out of the postal service to put into a federal budget. there was a mandate that you're bringing a $100000.00, new revenue every month. the nature of privatization in the us postal service is very much hidden from public view. it's privatization from the inside out. that's a
9:59 pm
big move in money. it's not about the public and given them a service that the design, it's not about quality train workers. it's about the mime . look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point, obviously is to create trust. i rather than say, a job with artificial intelligence, real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence with
10:00 pm
ah, twitter faces a barrage of accusations that it's doing the u. s. government bidding, it's all after the social media giant worked with a washington think tank in suspending, more than 3000 accounts from 6 countries for alleged state back to propaganda. the u. k is well, college of midwives apologizes for new supposedly inclusive guidelines describing mothers as post natal people. the former and a chest nurse believes an influential lobby group is steering. the conversation is easy. yet to nova example of stonewall going in with diversity offices and telling people how to reset their thinking about members. and in a landmark.
