<p>It's very obvious which comments are from those without kids and a busy kitchen. This hardware is built to sell apple family one subs. The multiuser is not a feature of the iPad, and this alone means an iPad can't replicate this.<p>As you get older you start to realise half of hot takes are a result of living in a different half of the economy which doesn't quite get things like the suburbs are appealing</p>

<p>I suppose it depends on the value of the individual task. I can't imagine it's really realistic to lock down devices of mechanical Turk workers in such a way that ai use can be monitored.<p>In any case Locking down devices isn't really pragmatic at scale for relatively low value tasks,  and also introduces complexity about employment law where I am.</p>

<p>I've used Mechanical Turk in the early days but developed my own version for my vertical to manage freelancers.<p>The problem as I see it is verifying the work is not done by AI.  If it was possible to verify somehow that the work is definitely not done by AI I think there would still be a market for this. But the data just cannot be trusted.<p>An increasingly big part of my job is to try and weed out workers who use AI and it's not an easy task at scale because generally workers gain trust with manual work and then there is degradation over time.</p>

<p>I think you missed my point.  But you think the bounds of every field of research and technology has expanded, except language?<p>To learn how to read and write well, then you would do just as well, if not better, to read modern authors at the top of their fields. I wouldn't exclude thrillers. Reading Chaucer in old English, to stretch the point to breaking, is not going to give you any kind of edge. Maybe it will teach you a bit of French, but again, you are better off reading modern French literature for that.<p>I suspect you were not forced to read the classics as I was. Much of it is stuffed with overly flowery prose and immature ideas. It's mostly tradition that keeps them alive.<p>There is much personal satisfaction in literature, but I would place it much closer to leisure than work.</p>

<p>Interesting that you highlight classics, is the implication that it's more ... productive for your personal development to read classics than trashy thrillers?<p>As someone who spent four years reading 'the' Classics at uni, I doubt it's very true<p>you comment wouldn't read quite so well if you swapped classics for posting cat tiktoks and hanging out with strangers you bump into in the street. But what makes that inferior?</p>
