Uber is ramping up its gig worker fleet with a new focus on AI annotation and data labeling. The ride-hailing company has launched a new division called Scaled Solutions, hiring contractors to work on projects for both internal and external clients, such as Aurora Innovation and Niantic.
### Recruiting Contractors Globally
Uber is actively recruiting contractors in various countries, including the U.S., Canada, and India, to join its AI and data-labeling division. This move aligns with the growing demand for data labeling services in the AI market, with companies like Scale AI experiencing significant growth and securing substantial funding.
With Uber’s foray into data labeling, the company is positioning itself to capitalize on the booming AI industry and expand its services beyond traditional ride-hailing operations.
