DoorDash has introduced a new initiative called ‘Tasks’ to provide its gig workers with an opportunity to earn additional income. This initiative allows Dashers to perform short activities such as taking photos of restaurant dishes or recording unscripted conversations in various languages. The data collected from these activities will be used to train artificial intelligence and robotics models. DoorDash is piloting a standalone app for these tasks, where the complexity of the activity will determine the compensation. This move positions DoorDash within the AI training data market, leveraging its workforce to collect real-world data. Dashers can now become key participants in machine learning by transforming their everyday activities into a novel revenue stream that supports AI model development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
