CateBetween 1933 and 2020 there were 14 American presidents, 7 Democratic and 7 Republican.
The economy during this time grew at an average rate of 4.6% under the Democratic presidents, but only an anemic 2.4% under Republican presidents. For example, the economy has grown three times faster under Biden than under Trump.

Upol EhsanIf you've used ChatGPT, you may have noticed that it's relatively decent at avoiding toxicity. Is it because of some magical AI trick?
Not really.
The real heroes are the ghostworkers who have worked tirelessly to detect toxicity in text containing "child sexual abuse, bestiality...torture, self harm, and incest" (many of which are illegal by US laws).
How much were they paid for this mentally scarring task?
