## Resource

You have heard of gig work, but this is different. There are no apps and no ratings. There is just a camera strapped to your head while you fold laundry, care for children, or operate a sewing machine. Your daily life is recorded and sold to the biggest tech companies on Earth. This is the story of the invisible workforce training the machines that could one day replace them, and the trade we may not realize we are making. On the show: Steve, Yushan & Yushun
