Appaled at the lack of empathy for labellers from other comments here.

- Beestie 7mo agoI read the 404 article and its nauseating - the story of the young man from Africa is very unpleasant. We all know the pr0n industry is a thing but this is off the rails.
- guitarlimeo 7mo agoYeah same. Anything seems to go if it means the next version of $HOT_LLM_MODEL is improved.
- fluoridation 7mo agoGood, good. Very virtuous of you. What exactly are you asking for? Just some commiserative platitudes? I don't think anyone is under the false impression that these are awesome jobs, but the fact is, they are jobs. The people doing them are getting paid to do them. Why would data labellers be more deserving of sympathy than any other type of office worker?
- klueinc 7mo agoCalling traumatizing data work a 'normal office job' is a lazy reach that confuses a paycheck with an excuse to ignore what it actually does to people.
- fluoridation 7mo agoNo one in this thread has used the word "normal" besides you, so you're responding to something no one said. I called it an office job. Are you contending that it's not one? Setting that aside, maybe this type of job in particular is traumatizing. And? What do you want done about it?
- whattheheckheck 7mo agoSeems to be a whole class of people that when they come across a story that should be gut wrenching have to come up with a reason why its not and get angry with whoever brought it up. "How dare you make me feel bad? Its obviously not bad!"
