Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
Jaeden and Conor break down Amazon’s decision to shut down Mechanical Turk, the micro-task platform that quietly powered AI training and the gig economy for over two decades. They dig into what its end signals about the future of work, how AI has already solved the tiny human tasks it was built for, and where human authenticity still holds value as automation keeps rising.
