Stuff like this makes me wonder of it wouldn't be more efficient to have humans doing the work of "AI." Instead of having some kooky software, use a person to do the same thing with 2 watts of electricity.

Amazon's Mechanical Turk program is/was basically this. Farming out small editing or image recognition tasks to people in the global south who may or may not actually get paid a pittance for it.

man i remember one time I basically got paid $20/hr to, based on a series of screenshots, make a title for a porn video. My god it was easy money, but the tasks ran out and never came back 😔
