Isn’t this exactly what Amazon got exposed for doing with their experimental grocery stores?
Shh. That’s different. /s
I don’t get it
Edit: oh, its because the company wasn’t producing a prompt-based service like ChatGPT. Their business was “making apps with AI”. Anfbapparently they had a team of people making the apps.
I still don’t know what anyone else expected. I’m sure those devs were using AI to spit out functions, but you’re always going to have to have a human clean up the AI slop so it actually works. So of course this is how the industry will work. Indians are just smarter than US Americans, I guess.
So the correct backronym for AI is “All Indians”?
“Actually Indians”
It was right there and I didn’t see it. Well done. Hat tip.
Wasn’t a room full of indian dudes literally the backend of Amazon’s “AI based” convenience store a few years back?
It’s great example of making an MVP. Bullshit as much and as cheaply as you can until you know the market demands it.
AGI = A guy instead
A Guy in India
AI = Actually Indians
(I stole this and I’m not giving it back)
And still used less energy than an LLM.
Those guys must’ve had a damn good WPM in touch typing though. They can probably reskill to court stenographers on a dime.
Or, copy paste to a another LLM…
If I had a nickel for every time this happened in recent memory, I’d have at least two nickels…
…which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it’s happened twice
Reportedly somebody became suspicious when the AI said “thank you come again”
Hey wait a minute, you’re not an AI! You’re just 700 Indian engineers in a trench coat!
This is how you move money from wealthy investors to workers. Well done, I hope to see many copy cats.
Eh…more like moving money from wealthy investors to not as wealthy conmen.
I mean, they still did the work didn’t they?
I mean, the workers weren’t exactly getting paid well. I guess a paycheck is better than no paycheck, but they weren’t building a socialist utopia here.
Also the employees who got laid off and replaced by this AI aren’t getting paid either.
