Data labelling is a fricking hard market and there are some core questions. 1. Why does no player want to be called a talent marketplace? 2. Is the proclaimed ā€œrevenueā€ real revenue or GMV? 3. What are the margins given the GMV structure of the business? 4. Are the players not concerned by the concentration of revenue with 2 customers being over 50% of revenue for every player in market? 5.If synthetic data continues to improve, WTF happens to their core business?

The hidden force behind AI. @Turingcom is a powerhouse.
BREAKING: AI has eaten the Internet. Data labeling is so over. & $30 trillion of human work is on the verge of automation. Inside The $2.2B AI Research Accelerator, Turing Founder & CEO, Jonathan Siddharth (@jonsid), joins Sourcery to break down the severe power shift in AI training: from commodity data labeling → expert research Positioning @turingcom apart from AI data providers like Scale AI, Mercor, & Surge. (00:00) AI Ate The Internet (00:49) Training Superintelligence: the race to AGI (02:31) Viral tweet (03:24) What Turing actually does (04:43) The internet data is ā€œused upā€ — where will new data come from? (05:34) Four pillars of superintelligence: multimodality, reasoning, tool use, coding (06:07) Automating $30T of global knowledge work (09:18) The $1B revenue opportunity (10:59) Why Turing is a research-first accelerator, not a data labeler (13:45) Jonathan’s Stanford AI Lab roots & founding DNA (17:57) How models are built: pre-training vs. post-training (20:14) RLHF, reinforcement learning, & ā€œbreaking the modelsā€ (25:19) GPT-5 and the myth of rapid takeoff (30:46) Safety debates and human-in-the-loop systems (34:53) Closing Enterprise Gap: finance, insurance, & pharma (39:23) Why proprietary enterprise data is the next moat in AI

There is a fundamental shift in the data needs to power ASI. Simple data is over. It's now the era of complex, real world & diverse data generated by research accelerators. Turing is proud to help America lead the race to ASI by partnering with all the top frontier Al labs. šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø
Watching → the quiet transformation of the data pipeline Something underdiscussed is the fundamental shift in how AI is labelled & trained for the next era of intelligence.. As we move toward Superintelligence or 'ASI', AI models don’t just need more data.. they need high-quality, expert-generated data, not bulk-labeled outputs from gig workers. If V1 AI had its greatest impact on lower-skill knowledge work (transcriptions, note-taking, basic marketing), next-gen AI, 'Superintelligence,' will be defined by its ability to operate in fields requiring extreme abstraction, multi-disciplinary synthesis, & high-stakes reasoning. Think: theoretical physics, advanced mathematics, AI safety, neuroscience, cryptography, aerospace, climate science, synthetic biology, & geopolitical strategy Industries that have real impact on frontier technology.. leading to true 'Superintelligence' Superintelligence, n. ā€œAn intellect that is much smarter than the best human brains in practically every field, including scientific creativity, general wisdom, and social skills.ā€ - Nick Bostrom . . . "The thing that I think will be the most impactful on that 5 to 10 year time frame is AI will actually discover new science. And this is a crazy claim to make but I think it is true. And if it is correct then over time I think that will dwarf everything else." @sama on Jack Altman's Uncapped FWIW I don't think it's crazy to think ASI will make new discoveries, but I do think one major test of ASI will be its ability to invent new science & technologies. And that'll need industry experts. . . . The Financial Times just spotlighted this shift, covering top players like Scale AI, Turing, & Toloka moving away from gig-based labeling & toward highly specialized, expert-driven data pipelines ā€œDeep-pocketed AI companies are now willing to pay for more sophisticated datasets & experts from around the world.ā€ ā€œAs leading AI groups such as OpenAI, Anthropic, & Google attempt to develop models that they claim will exceed human intelligence, there is a new push to focus on the quality of these datasets & hiring experts to examine complex problems.ā€ This is where Turing seems to be leading the pack. As @turingcom CEO @jonsid puts it, the goal isn’t just to replicate human expertise, it’s to transcend it, leading to 10x productivity: ā€œThe result of this is the model’s not just going to be better than a physicist. It’s going to be better than a superposition of somebody who’s at the top in physics, computer science, & data science,ā€ said Turing’s Siddharth.

Just got back from @RaiseSummit in Paris—where AI's top names like Groq, Cerebras, Eric Schmidt, Lovable, & Windsurf all took the stage Yet one unexpected player stood out as the next breakout AGI leader.. Stats: - $300M in Rev (profitable!) - $225M in funding, $2.2B valuation - Network of 4M engineers - Customers: OpenAI, NVDA, Anthropic, Google, MSFT, Meta, Salesforce, Amazon Any guesses?

Excited to share that @turingcom has secured $111M in funding in a heavily oversubscribed round at a $2.2B valuation. We’re one of the fastest-growing AGI infrastructure companies in the world—and we’re profitable. Thanks to @ingridlunden from @TechCrunch for covering our story. techcrunch.com/2025/03/06/tu… Thread below 🧵

Turing in the wild at SFO! :) It's been exciting to partner with the world's leading AI labs to teach LLMs to think, reason and code. As the cost of intelligence-as-a-service comes down through progress in models, compute and data, we'll see unbelievable progress across all domains constrained by human intelligence. @turingcom
