Modern AI needs tons of data for training and quality control — and a lot of it is coming from human beings, whether it’s contract workers recruited from Amazon’s Mechanical Turk or regular users filling out a CAPTCHA.

No, no we’re not.
You know, im something of an A.I myself.
"Named after a robot from the 1700's"
What
We already knew. Or at least most people subscribed to channels like CGPGrey and so on.
Thank you! Just updated my CV on *AI Tester for Google*.
Doing it since 2015…way to go!
Non-news.
Why was the background beat actually made in GarageBand lol
"And as Amazon can tell you, the trick still works."
What did he mean by this ending statement ?!?!?
That's not true. Google's verification has to know in advance which square is what in order to verify your answers. So, you can't be feeding the AI with answers: they're already there.
Training our replacements.
Pretty cool.
human beings building their own demise one captcha at a time
On the topic of the captas, How do you explain when the human picks a wrong answer? It knows what you got wrong.
AI will superhumanise or dehumanise us ?
Twitter makes me pass these tests every single day for “safety reasons” cause it doesn’t believe me that’s my profile cause I once changed my username
Yea I’ve kinda suspected this for a while, sometimes captchas feel a little sketchy, I’ll click a square that isn’t quite correct and it’ll pass just fine.
Barber : What you want fam?
This guy : Have you seen iPhone X?
Barber : got u fam
But didn't the AI already have the info about the images? Because it wouldn't let you, if you select the images incorrectly.
lolz nothing new, Id like meh google serches pl. X
Also not you. X
Omg this is fun… fill in the blanks and tag a mate:
Favourite colour…
Mothers maiden name…
Credit card details…
Social security number…
Lol, please dont fill it in. But I hate these kind of posts on facebook… surely they're made to gather information (most likely for running adverts I guess?)
CAPTCHA is an acronym for “completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart.” This can be with images/audio or whatever we will see in the future.
Why do sites use it?
CAPTCHA is used to prevent bots from automatically submitting forms with SPAM or other unwanted content. Google and other companies use it to prevent bots from creating multiple Gmail accounts.
finally we're not training here any ML model.
Yano what I'm guna say it ..

Well, as for myself, I gamify it. Whenever I get one of those, I solve it as quickly as possible so as to push myself and see if I get it all right.
i think that training AI to recognize violent stimuli via physical sensors is not going to work… and i'm gonna love it…
COME ON GOOGLE, YOU AREN'T EVEN SENDING ME 0.08€ POLLS TO MY PHONE. son of a b***
3 cent for a minute work… That makes incredible 1,80 an hour. They don't train ai, they test how cheap people are willing to sell them selves
Simply WOW!!
To figure that out i asked an AI expert…
"AI expert": i googled it😎😎
AI in the wrong hands or AI in its own hand (pun intended) is the last thing we need
That's clever. Now they don't even have to pay for low-paid workers to do the data labeling. 🤔😮

I HAAAAAAAAAAAATE gOOOOOOOOOOOOGLEEEee
Captcha needs abolishing. I had one a couple of nights ago that took me through about 5 different sets of images before telling me that I had failed, even though I had tapped on the correct images. On my next attempt at logging in, it let me log in to a website after just 1 set of images. It's slowly getting worse and worse.
hCaptcha is a good alternative to Google. It pays website owners for each captcha solved.
Cadê os brasileiros falando pra ele que aquilo não é um busca preço? Rsrs
How are we helping with labeling if the captcha has already known what we are supposed to type? Because typo will be recognized and the captcha will generate another string for human to type. I dont get how it works, could someone help explain?
Thanks.
How Venezuela feeds their children
Google is the terminator
Help me understand the captcha process: In order to pass the captcha test, the images i select must already be confirmed as the object i'm expected to select (cars for example) in order to verify i picked the right ones. Why am I needed to help the AI when the data set has already been labeled?
I intentionally choose trains instead of cars when online I am being obliged to select some images. Beat that google!
and I IIIII wants 2 B PAID!.
cashflukes on telegram is the real plug no doubts have been dealing with him for weeks hit him up for physical or digital credit cards,dumps with pin ,logs ,fullz ,all dark web stuffs ,fraud bibles,bins,methods and carding tutors
Google can't believe that they're getting all that data for free.
I always felt like so…………😩
😁
mechanical turk is probably the best name that someone could come up with for this job
