Artificially Intelligent Software: Just Hire a Guy in Bangladesh

Ah yes, the age of Artificial Intelligence. The machines are getting smarter, algorithms are revolutionizing industries, and soon, AI will take over all jobs…

…except, wait—it still needs some guy in Bangladesh to do half the work.

The Secret to "AI"? Just Hire Someone Overseas.

You ever wonder why some AI-powered software seems to work perfectly one day and then mysteriously takes hours the next? That’s because it’s not AI at all—it’s just a group of humans in a different time zone.

Big corporations have figured out the best AI solution isn’t fancy machine learning—it’s outsourcing.

• Receipt scanning in QuickBooks? That’s just some worker in the Philippines manually typing numbers into a spreadsheet.
• Automated content moderation? That’s actually a traumatized contractor in India reviewing all your unhinged memes.
• OCR for legal documents? Nope, that’s an underpaid dude in Pakistan squinting at PDFs.
• AI chatbots? Not so fast—that’s just someone in Brazil copy-pasting responses from a script.

Why AI Won’t Take Over the World

The AI apocalypse that sci-fi movies warn us about? Never gonna happen.

Why? Because AI can’t even function without a guy in Bangladesh helping it out.

• Power-hungry data centers? Sure, AI needs huge amounts of electricity. But what happens when the human workers behind the "AI" go on strike?
• Machine learning? More like human learning. AI doesn’t know what a receipt looks like until a team of humans label thousands of them.
• Self-driving cars? They still rely on offshore workers to manually tag images of stop signs.

AI Needs Its Overseas Workforce

If AI were truly "intelligent," why does it still need so much human intervention?

• AI detects fraud—but only after someone in Indonesia marks suspicious transactions by hand.
• AI translates languages—but not before a low-wage worker in Africa double-checks the results.
• AI filters spam—but only because a contractor in Vietnam manually flags scam emails all day.

Even Tesla’s "Full Self-Driving AI" is just a bunch of remote workers manually reviewing footage.

The Future: AI-Powered… By Humans

The next time you hear a company bragging about its "advanced AI," just remember:

• There’s no AI takeover happening anytime soon.
• The real AI is a guy named Raj in Bangladesh.
• If AI really worked, companies wouldn’t need cheap offshore labor to keep it running.

So relax. The robots aren’t coming for your job. But some dude in a lower-cost country definitely is.
