#33> In a snake-eating-its-own-tail irony, a 2023 analysis found that between 33% and 46% of workers on the platform were using large language models to complete their tasks, I assume AI use by workers has risen to the point where it renders Mechanical Turk pointless.
I don't see why I would care how they do the job. Just do the job, I have other things to do.

#34I turked for a bit trying to make some extra cash leading up to my wedding, but it was a very time-inefficient way to make money. I think I managed to wring 10 or 20 bucks out of it tops after plugging at it for a month.

Artificial AI = stuff like mechanical turk where they get humans to do stuff computers can't do and make it look like it's "AI" Artificial Artificial Intelligence = using computers to do mechanical turk jobs
You wrote the same thing twice, hehe. But the point gets across.

#37I can see a high value startup, that will provide Human Intelligence with real Humans, locked in the room, with no network, books, LLMs and monitored 24x7 with cameras.
24/7 isolation with no stimulation outside of work? Wonder if the hallucination rate would be higher or lower
Just give them some exercise bikes to pedal to keep them physically occupied

I'd suggest first looking into the conditions that enable humans to generate sustained, high quality output.

You were using LLMs in 2012?
They were faking artificial intelligence by using real individuals.
That's just Artificial Artificial Intelligence, the triple negative implies they built an automated system to impersonate humans who impersonate an automated system (which ultimately imitates a human).
