Verantwortung und Haltung zeigen, über die Ausbeutung von #Dataworkers sprechen, dem Hype nicht einfach hinterherlaufen 😬
"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."

L' #IA a ses petites mains qui sont exploitées pour analyser les données et être toujours à jour. Et si les travailleurs du data se revoltaient un jour en s'amusant à entraîner les #IA n'importe comment ? #DataWorkers

"A pesar de que trabajamos para estas grandes empresas, somos la mano de obra barata y descartable para ellos": Oskarina Fuentes frente al Parlamento Europeo junto a @milamiceli.bsky.social hablando sobre la extrema precariedad de los trabajadores de datos de la industria de la IA 📢 #dataworkers
Data Workers‘ Inquiry 2024 DAIR Institute Milagros Miceli es socióloga e informática y dirige un equipo en el Instituto Weizenbaum de Berlín. Lleva años investigando el trabajo que hay detrás de los sistemas de IA, incluida la anotación de datos, en la que la gente clasifica y etiqueta conjuntos de datos para que las máquinas puedan entenderlos. “Despite their critical role in the development of AI, data workers are often rendered invisible and their well-being overlooked. This is not accidental, but by design. The Data Workers Inquiry aims to change that.” Dr. Milagros Miceli Weizenbaum Institute https://data-workers.org/
"A pesar del papel fundamental que desempeñan en el desarrollo de la IA, los trabajadores de datos a menudo son invisibles y se pasa por alto su bienestar. Esto no es accidental, sino intencionado" - @milamiceli.bsky.social @weizenbauminstitut.bsky.social

Data Workers‘ Inquiry 2024 DAIR Institute Data Work beyond data work Invited Pieces Artists, translators, writers, nurses, and internet users produce data for AI without compensation. As part of the Data Workers‘ Inquiry, workers collectives describe how they organize to fight power concentration and exploitation in the tech industry. Art and "Generative AI" are NOT Equal By Arte es Ética https://data-workers.org/arte-es-etica/ Arte es Ética is a non-profit collective, which emerged at the end of 2022 as a result of the irruption of generative AI in our artistic fields and is integrated by creative professionals and independent visual artists (illustrators, designers, photographers, animators, painters, 3D modelers, among others) whose main objective is to achieve an ethical regulation of generative AI in Latin America and Spain. In addition, we work jointly with associations of other artistic disciplines, unions and cultural spaces in Latin America. Our main work is focused on informing about how generative AI affects the creative sector and bringing this information to the political representatives of the different Spanish-speaking countries.
