On May 9, the US Department of Labor quietly closed an investigation against Scale AI regarding compliance with fair pay practices and working conditions (Reuters).

Scale AI is a company at the very center of the “AI revolution”, but it has been subject to some nasty allegations of labor exploitation, on multiple fronts.

However, if you have enough money in America, bad things tend to magically go away – at least for right now, and most certainly if you say your work is essential to outcompeting China in the AI superintelligence race.

I recently had a chat with Celeste Garcia about what Scale AI is, who its founders are, and what the allegations against the company are.

Hope you enjoy the conversation and take something away from it!
