The big question is: how much incentive will regular contributors actually get? And how transparent will the revenue split be? That will determine whether the community sticks around long term or if itβs just early hype.
The next wave of critical data isn't here on the internet.
Itβs:
β’ spoken, not typed
β’ contextual, not generic
β’ local, not global defaults
Weβve spent the last few months learning how to acquire this at scale.
Numo is what comes out of that.
Numo is targeting underrepresented languages right out of the gate: Bengali, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu. These languages have hundreds of millions of speakers but are severely lacking in quality AI datasets. Itβs a smart move to fill a gap big tech has mostly ignored.
Story Protocol's new app, named Numo, appears to be related to its previous application, @psdnai. Numo's early access currently focuses on collecting Bengali, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu voice data. It may take some time before other languages, such as Indonesian become available.
AI was trained on the open internet, but the data that matters most lives in the real world.
Introducing early access to Numo, an app built to collect the next generation of AI training data.
Starting with voice data collection in Bengali, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
