I’m familiar with the history of it. It was a person in the box. Mechanical Turk is also a 21st century reference to people that do brainless work born from the AWS service. In either reading I’m only seeing you’re saying they don’t count as workers, or they’re workers that don’t count because their work is trivial. I see from your post history that English may not be your first language. I’m really hoping you’re just miscommunication. Please explain the non-racist/non-dismissing meaning I’m hoping you’re trying to get across.
