Workers of the world, get ready to meet your robot supervisors. A new service called Humanoid wants to turn you into a "robot-supervised army" that it will rent out for $5 an hour. It already has 20,000 workers lined up for today's launch. Humanoid comes out of a startup called Speakertext, which uses a mixture of automated techniques and crowdsourced labor to transcribe online videos (we use Speakertext for TCTV). Speakertext will continue as a product of Humanoid, which is shifting focus to helping companies with their software development. Google Ventures is putting in a few hundred thousand dollars in another seed round (the company raised $600,000 in February from Mitch Kapor and others).Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/Yp5RNsfW1cA/
