Currently, several U.S. government departments are actively investigating. There’s a massive class action lawsuit underway, with its own website (just search 'Scale AI Class Action'), currently involving hundreds of plaintiffs and expected to grow into the thousands globally. The accusations include wire fraud, formation of a criminal syndicate, fraud and misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and more.
It's nice to see so much transparency. I think this would be a good video for the Remotasks community to see. I'm thankful I saw this video. Thank you!
I've been theorizing with friends that post-scarcity, post-AGI societies will be more about deeper evolutionary needs and their associated problems, while AI will handle everything else. This CEO's idea that the model's ability to "optimize for amorphous goals over exceedingly long time horizions" is a fundamental limitation seems in line with my evolution theory. We can't re-create the exact pressures that developed human intelligence (i.e. evolution over millenia), so it makes sense that we will never create something artificial that captures all of this context. AI will do a shit ton, but not *everything*.
I respect Alex for winning, but the founding story of Scale AI is total BS in this video. He was a freshman at MIT in his first semester, he wasn’t working on AI yet. He got into YC with an app like Zocdoc then pivoted into Scale. This whole ‘wow you had so much foresight’ is a load of BS
He was building smth like Opentable but for clinics. He scraped data from websites and this experience inspired him to build APIs for human-in-the-loop services like evaluating a website, extracting info from an article, etc. Eventually the service expanded to data annotation and the rest is history.
You can still have foresight for a new direction. How does that not make sense? You start down one path, realize the future is going down another path and you pivot. That is quite literally foresight.
Nothing wrong with pivoting and changing direction until you get it right, my issue is with how he is telling the story. The way he’s presenting it is very different from the messy reality. It’s ok to admit you were just making it up as you went along
well this was a waste of time.. openai cofounder already said ai will automate his job away in 5 years. so good luck to you if you think humans + ai will beat ai alone
Refreshing to listen to a meaningful discussion focusing on the data the AI models are trained and refined on.
He’s accomplished so much!! I’d be interested in another interview with Alex focusing on how his corporation values and cares about its workers!

How many of us get it right on the first idea though?

True
recommend something more please

if openai said it, it must be true then. thanks for the heads up.
:)
Alex is clearly not very bright (or maybe just too young?)
Elad clearly understands this, but cannot say it out loud
Why you think so?
Nah he’s bright but he has to play the game a bit because of investors
Bet they smashed when he was in her house
WATT NO WAY
I THOUGHT HE WAS A GEY 😒
He is virgin male sacrifice
WATT NO WAY
I THOUGHT HE WAS A GEY
Just let him be a male virgin sacrifice
No gf
I take that one ty
