Description
**Podcast Summary:**In a significant shift, AI labs are now hiring former employees from big companies to train their models, bypassing expensive data contracts. Mercor, a startup connecting these experts with AI labs, has seen its revenue skyrocket to $500 million annually, valued at $10 billion. While some companies like Goldman Sachs are unhappy, many are open to this new way of working. Mercor aims to create a gig economy for knowledge workers and expand into law, finance, and medicine, potentially transforming these industries with AI-powered tools. However, concerns around proprietary information leakage persist.
