It's probably mostly people involved in tagging and transcribing. It's super labor intensive to get decent results when your AI is not as good as you advertise it as.

Definitely is transcribers and annotators. It's weird how much slight of hand companies due to make it look like some kind of flexible, general AI when it's really machine learning and man does that mean piles of data.

You're pretty much talking about most AI there.
