亞馬遜終結 Mechanical Turk ——這難道只是早期版的 RLHF？
亞馬遜將於2026年停止為新使用者提供mechanical turk服務，這實際上宣告了其「人工人工智慧」眾包平台時代的終結。
amazon web services announced that mechanical turk will stop accepting new customers on july 30, 2026, placing the decades-old crowdsourcing service into maintenance mode without further updates. launched in 2005 as 'artificial artificial intelligence,' the platform became obsolete as ai labs shifted to specialized vendors like scale ai to handle high-quality training data and difficult edge cases. a 2023 study revealed that crowdworkers were already using llms to complete tasks, undermining the platform's utility for generating reliable human data. existing customers can continue using the service, but the move signals the end of general-purpose micro-tasking as a viable ai infrastructure layer.
