  1. Riconquistare l'indagine scientifica come strumento per la #lotta dei #lavoratori

    Il saggio pubblicato riflette sulle fondamenta marxiste e sulle implicazioni politiche dell'Indagine dei #DataWorkers

    Mostra sia il potere politico dell'indagine dei lavoratori dei dati sia le sfide pressanti nell'organizzare una forza lavoro globalmente frammentata.

    Il compito di produrre la conoscenza favorevole all'emancipazione collettiva rimane, come sempre, permanente

  2. RE: mamot.fr/@casilli/116551323220

    « Il y a une véritable dynamique de constitution de classe, au sens sociologique et d’économie politique. Les travailleurs sont en train de se constituer en classe politique, et cela se joue aussi dans le conflit avec des plateformes qui, malgré leur complexité, restent assez représentatives du secteur. Plus largement, ces acteurs économiques ne peuvent pas fonctionner autrement qu’en exploitant le travail humain. »

  4. RE: dair-community.social/@milamic

    'Over time, I began to suspect that I wasn’t just chatting with lonely users. I was also helping to train AI companions, systems designed to simulate love, empathy, and intimacy. Many of us believed we were simultaneously impersonating chatbots and teaching them how to replace us. Every joke, confession, and “I love you” became data to refine the next generation of conversational AI.'

  5. Künstliche Intelligenz, "soziale" Medien und die Ausbeutung von Arbeitskraft in #Kenia

    ‚KI und soziale Medien sind in aller Munde. Es wird gesagt, sie werden die Welt verändern. Doch was steckt hinter der Entwicklung dieser Technologien? Wie sieht es mit den Rechte der Erwerbsarbeiter:innen aus, die diese mit Inhalten füllen bzw. Inhalte prüfen und so erst zum Laufen bringen - und damit helfen, enorme Gewinne zu produzieren? In Zeiten, in denen über eine KI-Blase geredet wird, die bald zu platzen droht, veröffentlichte Labournet Germany ein lesenswertes Feature über die Content Moderators Union in Afrika - mit dem Fazit: Hinter ChatGPT, Facebook und Co. stecken prekäre und traumatisierende Arbeitsbedingungen‘

  6. Podcast Radio Onda Rossa: ‘In the Belly of AI’

    casilli.fr/2025/11/16/podcast-

    Intervista al prof. Antonio Casilli, sociologo ricercatore all'università di Parigi, autore del documentario che mette a tema la condizione dei lavoratori dei dati per la IA che in ogni parte del mondo lavorano sottopagati e in condizioni precarie.

    Il documentario verrà proiettato a Roma, venerdì 20 novembre, presso lo spazio gestito dall'associazione Forte Prenestino.

  7. Vent'anni fa veniva lanciato Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk), un marketplace di crowdsourcing per mettere in contatto aziende (requester) e lavoratori (worker) con compiti che richiedono intelligenza umana, come l'etichettatura di immagini o la trascrizione di audio.

    I lavoratori completano i compiti HIT - Human Intelligence Tasks - in cambio di un compenso stabilito dai requester.

    Allora come oggi: sottopagati e declassati per lavori stressanti e ad alto rischio.

  8. "Behind every AI system is a huge amount of human effort. Most of this work is not done by well-paid engineers, but by millions of precariously employed workers."

    Great explainer by @superrr!

  9. Data-Worker und Drecksarbeit - Raus aus der Unsichtbarkeit

    Damit# KI und #SocialMedia nutzbar werden, blicken Data-Worker im Verborgenen in Abgründe. In Kenia regt sich nun aber Widerstand.

  10. Ayer estuvimos en el evento de #DataWorkers. Las y los trabajadores de datos han abierto una pequeña ventana en el espacio de opacidad al que les relegan las corporaciones. Pudimos entender mejor quiénes son, qué papel juegan, cómo lo padecen y cómo se organizan. Exigen que el trabajo de datos se dignifique, que sea más ético y justo, y para ello buscan que la ciudadanía se haga consciente. Os invitamos a informaros en esta web: data-workers.org/

  11. AI’s Hidden Human Cost: The Struggle of Kenya’s Data Workforce

    A growing body of evidence reveals a disturbing truth: data workers in countries like Kenya are being exploited to train AI systems, facing underpayment, emotional trauma, and precarious working conditions.

  12. #DeepSeek built a #ChatGPT rival for $5.6M. Secret? State-subsidized data labor?

    #China isn’t outsourcing—it’s building massive annotation hubs in low-tier cities, backed by government funding.

    Same #AI hype cycle:
    hide the #DataWorkers.

  13. This panel discussion with among others @timnitGebru on the way #contentmoderation #dataworkers are being treated is heart breaking. It puts the recent "we do not need content moderation" by #meta in an even more complicated perspective.

  14. Hace un par de meses, @milamiceli investigadora en IA con los institutos @DAIR y @Weizenbaum_Institut se puso en contacto con nosotros para que participemos con una pieza invitada en el marco del proyecto Data Workers’ Inquiry (DWI) que ella dirige.

    Desarrollamos una pieza audiovisual para poner en foco la situación de los trabajadores de las disciplinas artísticas a partir de la irrupción de la IA generativa en nuestros campos 🔥

    The Unknown Women of Content Moderation

    Many female data workers in Nairobi endure sexual, mental, and physical abuse. This zine sheds light on their experiences as women, mothers, and migrants working as content moderators at #Sama.

    "My name is Botlhokwa Ranta, and I have authored this Zine about women like myself who worked at a company named Sama, doing content moderation for Meta in Nairobi, Kenya. Sama is considered by some as a new-age sweatshop that exploits workers’ rights whenever possible. With this zine, I wanted to shed light on our gendered experiences in this working environment, where our vulnerable positions as young women, migrants, and mothers were exploited. Most of the stories are traumatic and come from a place of pain and tragedy. These stories aim to show the world that there are women who would literally go to the ends of the earth for their children and endure the unthinkable. After so much physical, sexual, and mental trauma, we deserve to be heard loud and clear. The stories are told by real women who went through real-life traumatic experiences while working at Sama in Nairobi....."
