This title uses virtual voice narration

Virtual voice is computer-generated narration for audiobooks.
The companies driving the AI revolution, from the well-known giants like Google and OpenAI to lesser-known players in the tech ecosystem, rarely perform this foundational labor of creating LLM’s themselves.

Instead, they rely on a global network of outsourcing companies, often located in developing countries, where labor costs are significantly lower and regulatory oversight is less stringent.

This geographical distribution of labor is not accidental. It's a deliberate strategy, a consequence of the relentless pursuit of profit maximization inherent in global capitalism.

Countries in Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia bear the brunt of this outsourcing, with workers in places like Kenya, the Philippines, and Bangladesh often tasked with the grueling work of labeling images for facial recognition software, transcribing medical records for diagnostic AI, or annotating satellite imagery for self-driving car technology.
And they are paid $2 an hour or less….under terrible working conditions.
