I appreciate the thought but which would you choose:
Full time minimum wage US worker at $7¼/hr or $15,080/yr vs $20,000 one time purchase?
I agree with you that these things are likely underpaid labor (maybe including literal slavery, or job conditions close enough to count anyways), but I don’t think your argument is going to be convincing to anyone actually considering getting one.
Why not just, you know, employ an actual human to do your chores in the first place? It’ll almost certainly be a lot cheaper than this clanker…
Besides, there’s no guarantee that those teleoperators won’t be literal slaves.
I agree on the slave front. If there is going to be any slavery going on, it better be good old-fashioned analogue slavery.
AI exists to isolate the worker from their labor, and for people in power to avoid accountability by creating new layers of plausible deniability.
