Amazon Mechanical Turk, the API for Humans
There are lots of Us out there. People with ideas and ambition. America is a two class society: Us entrepreneurial job creators and the job takers that depend on Us. You’re an entrepreneur, aren’t you? We all are today. You created your website, wrote your app, started your eBay business!
You aren’t foolish. You’ve read the Hour Work Week and you are ready to lifestyle design yourself around the world on your yacht while becoming multilingual and learning to prepare gourmet dishes. Automate, outsource…its easy if you do it right! You’re smarter than the average bear!
The manufacturing came from India, so that is covered. The web development came from India, check! The servers crunch the numbers, w00t! But, people are stingy with their time and when they give up their dreams for yours they won’t give it to you cheaply. There is a solution! Today’s new and improved internet comes with Artificial Artificial Intelligence
Its kind of clever wordplay: “Artificial Artificial”. Makes the process seem twice as digital when in reality its massively humanized. Clever marketing!
Your human capital now has an API and a unit cost. This will work perfectly for Us. Now, lets rename them COGS, forget employee benefits, remove interpersonal relationships, and realize our dreams! To be PC, I guess they prefer to be called “Mechanical Turk Workers” but that hardly matters. Lets raise these people up and plug them in! Cha Ching!
