According to sources who were affected by the layoffs, no official statement has been made by Scale leadership regarding the downsizing, and no additional information or context has been supplied to workers who were let go. According to two former workers who asked to remain anonymous for fear of professional repercussions, around 1,300 people were laid off--a number repeated in a Reddit thread about the downsizing. https://www.inc.com/sam-blum/scale-ai-lays-off-workers-via-email-with-no-warning.html

scale AI 为什么需要这么多人…
Labeler 鼠标体力工？
但是互联网上每隔半年就会有中文枪手小作文吹这个公司如何有前途， 这个CEO是未来之星， 搞不懂。
It's time for AI to fall.
他们的技术是什么？人肉label?应该外包给菲律宾嘛
contractor 不是layoff吧，合同到期不续签就可以了，全职员工才能算layoff
这个公司走不远/活不长。在他们几个billion估值的时候我就说过。近几MIT Stanford娃就是想暴富太急了，不看看手上有没东西，就急着圈钱。包括做video的那个。军方的御用labeler，不知道做的怎样。不进监狱就是善终吧
忽悠。
这CEO不提中国倒好了，他是身为华裔，整天提中国威胁，不知道为啥这么仇视中国。
AI做模型干嘛需要人？
no no no, 说明AI很成功，比人还能干
可能所有数据都标注完了，或者self-supervised learning不需要标注数据了？
