3.02 - Ghost Work


Listen Later

The first book covered in season 3 is Ghost Work by Mary Gray and Siddharth Suri. The book covers a hidden form of employment where tasks are assigned by an automated system, the compensation is pennies, and the output is often meant to appear as part of a sophisticated algorithm. Charles also takes the opportunity to yell about sandwiches.
