Thousands of people are selling their biometric identities to train AI and barely anyone is talking about it. Apps like Kled AI, Silencio, and Neon Mobile pay contributors small amounts to upload videos, voice recordings, and photos.
AI companies are running out of high-quality training data. Human data is now the gold standard. Researchers estimate AI labs will run out of fresh text to train on by 2026.
The dark side is irrevocable licenses. A voice recording today could power an AI customer service bot forever. One actor's AI replica was used to promote medical supplements without his knowledge or another cent.
An Oxford professor sums it up. Structurally this work is precarious, non-progressive and effectively a dead end. The platforms in the global north capture all the enduring value.
