[10] THE BURN WARD (UNFILTERED COMPLAINTS)
* The stark reality of the role, scraped from Reddit, Blind, and anonymous career boards.
"Also Black Box nature of AI isn't because of some sort of ethical stance (though corporations currently see it as a convenient but double edge sword that allows them to skirt and influence any future laws by saying they can't be expected to have full grasp on AI output because it's simply impossible, but on the other hand these owners also hate it because progress is much more costly and laborious when you don't have fully control of the tech's inner workings)."

"Even I was building the compliance framework and governance layer for fine tuning AI models using multimindsdk so that it’s more ethical."
