Discussion keeps the world turning.
This is Round Table.
You're tuned in to Round Table.
I'm Steve Hatherly today with Yu Shan and Yu Shun.
Coming up, you've heard of gig work, but this is different.
No apps, no ratings, just a camera strapped to your head
while you fold laundry or care for your kids or work on a sewing machine.
Your life recorded, sold to the biggest tech companies on earth.
Today we'll talk about this, the invisible workforce training the machines that could replace them
and the trade we may not realize we are making.
Our podcast listeners can find us at Round Table China on Apple Podcast.
While you are there, if it's not too much trouble, you could leave us a five-star review.
We'd very much appreciate that.
And don't forget, you can contact us too.

What would you trade for a free house cleaning?
Sounds like a good deal until the cleaner shows up wearing a camera on their head.
Every room, every dish, every corner of your home becomes data.
And that is just the beginning.
