seems you missed/misread this paragraph:
> AI training wasn’t on my radar until a comment in an unofficial Writers Guild of America Facebook group caught my attention. The page was filled with posts from unemployed writers struggling with debt and panicking about their income, begging for tips and ideas and survival strategies: “I am stressed and anxiety-ridden … simply trying to breathe” … “ISO food bank/pantry info” … “Hey, so what kind of part-time jobs are you all getting?” I’ve been working for this AI training company called Mercor, one woman typed in the comments. They’re paying 150 an hour for writers. It’s easy money.

> bounced between claiming they were broke and talking about about their $150 house cleaner
this isn't what the article says at all -- she was not both broke and hiring a house cleaner
if you don't like the article, just say so, but don't skim read and then misrepresent what the author said
> one person’s bumbling misadventure
you missed a lot of what was written
